Calibrating the far-side signal Juan Calibrated Farside Maps
can fill in some of this area with 1 x 4 skip method (in progress…) “far-side” imaging of the near side 1 x 3 skip method actually extends well onto the near side!
Calibration of the near-side signal Braun & Lindsey, 2000
Calibration of the far-side signal 2x2 Skips 1x3 Skips
Calibration of the far-side signal Can we improve the Green’s Functions? More realistic model --> Collaboration with Fernando Perez at the IAC Empirical calibration of the dispersion Dispersion for several bounces
