Long Baseline Imaging with LOFAR
Book chapter, 2018
In this chapter we focus on the calibration of International LOFAR, which includes the long baselines provided by international stations, to produce high-resolution radio images. The Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) techniques are explained, as well as the different steps required to properly calibrate a long-baseline observation at low frequencies.
