论文摘要
这份白皮书总结了泰国国家射程望远镜（TNRT）将要实现的潜在关键科学主题。 The commissioning phase has started in mid 2022. The key science topics consist of "Pulsars and Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs)", "Star Forming Regions (SFRs)", "Galaxy and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs)", "Evolved Stars", "Radio Emission of Chemically Peculiar (CP) Stars", and "Geodesy", covering a wide range of observing frequencies in L/C/X/KU/K/Q/W波段（1-115 GHz）。作为一种单次仪器，TNRT是使用其敏捷的观测系统和灵活操作来探索时间域天文学的理想工具。由于其理想的地理位置，TNRT将显着增强非常长的基线干涉量（VLBI）阵列，例如东亚VLBI网络（EAVN），澳大利亚长的基线阵列（LBA），欧洲VLBI网络（EVN），特别是通过提供更好的范围，从而使“覆盖范围”的独特范围覆盖了“ UV”的独特范围，该范围的覆盖范围是“ UV”的独特覆盖范围。侧嘴。该文档强调了单次模式下可以通过TNRT获得的关键科学主题，并与VLBI阵列合作。
This White Paper summarises potential key science topics to be achieved with Thai National Radio Telescope (TNRT). The commissioning phase has started in mid 2022. The key science topics consist of "Pulsars and Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs)", "Star Forming Regions (SFRs)", "Galaxy and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs)", "Evolved Stars", "Radio Emission of Chemically Peculiar (CP) Stars", and "Geodesy", covering a wide range of observing frequencies in L/C/X/Ku/K/Q/W-bands (1-115 GHz). As a single-dish instrument, TNRT is a perfect tool to explore time domain astronomy with its agile observing systems and flexible operation. Due to its ideal geographical location, TNRT will significantly enhance Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) arrays, such as East Asian VLBI Network (EAVN), Australia Long Baseline Array (LBA), European VLBI Network (EVN), in particular via providing a unique coverage of the sky resulting in a better complete "uv" coverage, improving synthesized-beam and imaging quality with reducing side-lobes. This document highlights key science topics achievable with TNRT in single-dish mode and in collaboration with VLBI arrays.
