I actually got into astronomy, in a way, through audio signal processing: talking to a friend about the problems she was dealing with I found some clever ways to apply the signal-processing stuff I was tinkering with to her problem, I spoke to her supervisor, and so when I decided to transfer into astronomy I had a supervisor who knew what I could do. And, interestingly, our sampling rates are really audio rates — only we have four-thousand channel audio to work with. I often think about whether there are ways to "visualize" pulsar data as audio, with little luck so far.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00764119699293212898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369432396898204613.post-27026355859839766612010-03-18T02:06:18.007+01:002010-03-18T02:06:18.007+01:00Hi Anne, this is Dan Lakeland.

I worked with an ex-astronomer for a while, and did an undergraduate project on signal processing for audio data, so I am somewhat familiar with your world of signal and noise.Daniel Lakelandhttp://models.street-artists.orgnoreply@blogger.com
