Long Wavelength Array
The Long Wavelength Array (LWA) is a radio telescope in the United States. It began routine observations in 2011, and formally became online in late 2015. It is one of the few observatories to utilize relatively low frequencies (10-88 MHz), and is used to study relativistic particles, cosmic evolution, astrophysical plasma, decametric radio emissions from Jupiter-like extrasolar planets, and giant flares from magnetars.
