Scientific paper

The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) is a new low-frequency, wide field-of-view radio array under construction in Western Australia, with a goal of detecting and characterizing radio emission from the epoch of reionization (EoR). A 32-element prototype interferometer has been deployed at the MWA site, and is currently being used for system characterization and early astronomical observations. Using this prototype array, we have observed candidate fields for our EoR detection experiment. We use these data to characterize the low-frequency radio point source population and discuss the implications of the properties of these fields for measuring the reionization power spectrum.
