Summary: | As part of the scientific cooperation between Ukraine and Russia, a series of studies on the preparation of the ground segment of the RadioAstron mission has been carried out. A scientific program of measurements to be performed using the 22-m RT-22 radio telescope (Crimean Astrophysical Observatory) has been prepared. A substantial part of this program is the study of compact structures in extragalactic sources. Ground-based VLBI test experiments at 6 and 18 cm intended for testing a model of the ground segments of the RadioAstron mission have been carried out at RT-22 of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in Simeiz and RT-70 (P-2500) in Evpatoriya. The processing of the data recorded by each antenna resulted in obtaining and calibrating responses of cross-correlation functions using the ASC LPI correlator. The results of the experiment demonstrate the readiness of RT-22 and RT-70 to participate in the ground-space radio interferometer sessions in the RadioAstron mission. |
