title: Parkes observations for project P858 semester 2014OCTS41

description: SUPERB is a large-scale survey for pulsars and extragalactic radio bursts. It will uses optimised GPU codes to search for pulsars and fast radio bursts (FRBs), making discoveries in real time. Handling our data as it comes in is essential for the SKA Phase I era so this work applies directly to the high-data rates of next generation telescopes. The pulsars discovered will enable studies of the interstellar medium, allow us to more accurately constrain the MSP luminosity function (which informs estimates of the SKA yield of MSPs), tests of theories of gravity and several will contribute to the precision timing projects of the PPTA. The FRBs discovered will have much more associated information than all previous detections. Firstly the discovery lag will be ~1 second, rather than months/years. The Parkes observations will be shadowed by the Molonglo telescope to allow, for the first time, localisation of FRBs, and a host of optical and high-energy telescopes will then be triggered as appropriate. This is key for identifying FRB host galaxies, so as to solve the mystery of their progenitors. The survey will discover ~20 MSPs, ~100 slower pulsars and ~10 FRBs.

description: XSS J1227-4859 is the second "Transitional" pulsar binary system discovered in the galactic field. We plan to set up a campaign of observations at 50cm, 20cm, 10cm and 3cm, with the aims of: (i) discriminating the various proposed mechanisms responsible for the orbital variations seen in the system; (ii) studying the time evolution and the nature of the radio eclipses; (iii) investigating the nature of the gamma-ray emission from the binary; (iv) determining the critical X-ray luminosity above which the pulsed radio emission disappears;  (v) constraining the geometry of the emission from the system in the radio, X-ray and gamma-ray bands.

title: Monthly waterbirds surveys in 2015 for Veta la Palma fish ponds in Doñana wetland, South Spain [Dataset]

description: All the ponds within the Veta la Palma system were surveyed monthly in 2015 by experienced observers as part of a monitoring program carried out by the Doñana Biological Station (EBD-CSIC, http:// www-rbd.ebd.csic.es/Seguimiento/seguimiento.htm). Owing to staff vacations, surveys did not take place in August. All aquatic birds present were identified to species and counted. We excluded raptors, corvids and other non-aquatic species from analyses. Every pond was visited on foot in a single day and surveyed from one or more positions along the shoreline with binoculars (8 x 50) and a telescope (20 x 60). Birds flying overhead were excluded. For each survey, the observers also identified the water level. Greater flamingos Phoenicopterus roseus are particularly abundant in the ponds (Rendón et al. 2008), and their behaviour also helped in the estimation of the water level as follows: 0 totally dry; 1 almost dry, with some dry regions in the pond and some shallow water; 2 low water level, roughly half way to the tibio-tarsal articulation of flamingoes; 3 medium level, approximately to the tibio-tarsal articulation; 4 high level, above the articulation but not exceeding total leg length

title: Parkes observations for project P789 semester 2014OCTS01

description: Recently there has been great success at Parkes discovering millisecond pulsars (MSPs), a class that includes some of the most interesting and scientifically valuable pulsars known. In the last few years we have discovered more than 40 MSPs though the High Time Resolution Universe Survey (P630) and Fermi searches (P675/P814). Here we propose to carry out precision timing of these sources to fully exploit these discoveries. Additionally, continue to study the most significant of the discoveries from the Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey (P268). 
To maximise scientific impact we have combined the most important sources from various previous proposals into this project, reducing total observation time required and easing the burden on the scheduler.
This project also makes use of all beams of the 21-cm receiver to search for transient radio burst of extragalactic origin at the same time as performing timing observations.

title: Parkes observations for project P879 semester 2014OCTS02

description: Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are millisecond bursts that are broadly evidenced to arise from extragalactic, but yet unknown, progenitors. They have presented a true mystery in that so far no progenitor theory can adequately account for their observed properties. We request observations that will glean basic information on FRB progenitors. Our observations will execute a specific test of whether FRBs originate in nearby galaxies. We have also designed our target field and time request to enable a thorough exploration of optical counterparts before, during, and after any detected FRB episode. Additionally, with a number depending on the typical distance to FRBs, our observations will raise the running list of total FRB discoveries by 10-60%.

title: Parkes observations for project P855 semester 2014OCTS

description: We propose to search for cosmological fast radio transients and intermittent pulsars during windstows and maintenance.  Fast radio transients are millisecond bursts of radio emission coming from cosmological distances, of which five are currently known.  New discoveries made in our searches will enable better characterisation of this unexpected population of objects.   We will also search for intermittent pulsars, which have duty cycles of 0.1 to 0.2 and time scales of weeks to months that were likely missed in previous surveys.

title: Parkes observations for project P859 semester 2014OCTS

description: A search of archival Parkes survey data has uncovered a source similar to that of a radio pulsar, however the detection DM indicates that it may be either the closest pulsar ever discovered, or simply a case of mistaken identity and is in fact an RFI event that closely mimics that of a pulsar signal.

We would like to propose a grid search of the location of this source, at 3 available frequency bands, in order to determine its nature.

title: The feasibility of liquid biogas (LBG) in Italy.

description: Biogas recovery is a very important issue nowadays both for the greater and greater interest in renewable energy resources and for the increasing problem of greenhouse gas reduction into atmosphere. In Italy, thanks to the new incentives scheme on biomethane, an interesting application for biogas deals with the separation and liquefaction of methane in order to produce an alternative vehicle fuel (LBG). The choice of the liquefaction technology has a big impact on the economics of such projects. The purpose of this paper is to present the feasibility analysis of a small scale biomethane plant taking into account investment costs, achievable energy efficiency and incentives available on the Italian market. It was assessed that an incentive higher than 0.35 €·Nm-3 of biomethane is necessary in order to make the project feasible.
