Extension of a cluster system for the calculation of the data from correlator for the investigation of incoming radio waves from space

Equipment :

  • Number of processor cores : 312
  • Number of nodes: 39
  • Processor type: Intel Xeon® E5430
  • Interconnect: Infiniband
  • Power management: MEGWARE ClustSafe®
  • Storage system: MEGWARE ClustStor® 24 Terabyte
  • Rack and cooling system: Knürr CoolLoop®

Purpose:
The cluster system will calculate the data from a correlator (special machine for the investigation of radio waves) and provide the results of a virtual telescope.
