The present paper will make a brief description of the four radars available at the Observatory. We have included in the bibliography a list of references where more detailed descriptions of these systems can be found. The ...

There are not too many antennas in the VHF range in the world dedicated to radio astronomy. ST, and specially MST, radars require and have large antenna apertures which could also be used for radio astronomical observations. ...

Radars are used to retrieve physical parameters related to clouds and fog. With these measurements, models can be developed for several application fields such as climate, agriculture, aviation, energy, and astronomy. In ...

We present an initial survey in the southern sky of the sporadic meteoroid orbital environment obtained with the Southern Argentina Agile MEteor Radar (SAAMER) Orbital System (OS), in which over three-quarters of a million ...

The ongoing implementation of a fog observatory in a coastal fog forest in northern Chile is expected to provide valuable information to improve our comprehension of these ecosystems alongside retrieving valuable data to ...

Modern high-power, large-aperture (HPLA) radars have been used in a variety of investigations including the investigation of meteoroid fragmentation. The identification of fragmentation has been based on a detailed ...

The MST radar at Jicamarca Radar Observatory JRO is a powerful radar that can detect atmospheric turbulence on the Bragg scale of 3 m in the daytime mesosphere 60-85 km Since 2002 the radar was operated for a few days each ...

Aperture synthesis radar imaging has been used to investigate coherent backscatter from ionospheric plasma irregularities at Jicamarca and elsewhere for several years. Phenomena of interest include equatorial spread F, ...
