UMAN. UMAN is the largest single-campus university in the UK, with 27,000 undergraduate and 10,000 postgraduate students. The Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics (JBCA), which is an integral part of UMAN’s School of Physics and Astronomy, is the largest astronomy and astrophysics group in the UK. JBCA runs Jodrell Bank Observatory, home of the 76-m Xxxxxx Telescope, and the e-MERLIN/VLBI National Facility. It has a broad ranging research programme, from studies of solar plasmas to the origins if the Universe, and most astrophysical phenomena that lie therein. JBCA also has a strong technology programme, with groups working on instrumentation R&D for multi-pixel cameras for studies of the Cosmic Microwave Background; for a wide range of technologies for the SKA, for broadband data transmission, for improved receiver systems and for algorithmic development. JBCA is also the host organisation for the SKA Programme Development Office and the XXXX Regional Centre. UMAN will design testing systems to test and validate BoD connections in WP6. For WP8, UMAN will participate in the development of tools and integration systems as well as participate in the testing of the systems Xxxx. Xxxxx Xxxxxxx is Acting Director of the Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics at the University of Manchester. His PhD (1970) was in cosmic ray physics He has worked on the development of interferometers for radio astronomy since the 1970’s, leading work on the development of phase stable radio linked interferometers with 100 km baselines. This work led to the development of the MERLIN array of 7 telescopes now operated as a National Facility by the University of Manchester for PPARC. His interest in VLBI started in the late 1970’s and was responsible for running VLBI operations at Jodrell Bank Observatory until the mid 1990’s. The European development of the 1 Gbps MkIV tape VLBI system was led by him. The electronics in this system now feed signals to the 1 Gbps Mk5 disc recorder used in routine operations. A pioneering demonstration at IGRID 2002 showed the feasibility of using the Internet at high data rates for VLBI, and work on this has continued with recent developments using switched light paths provided by the UKLight project. The ESLEA project, exploiting UKLight has enabled up to 1 Gbps real time operations in e-VLBI. He is head of the fibre optic group at Jodrell Bank, which has developed the use of fibres in radio astronomy for data transport at rates up to 120 Gbps. His astrono...
