Scientific paper

The Allen Telescope Array (ATA), dedicated on October 11, 2007 at Hat Creek, California, is currently, among other projects, undertaking transient surveys of the radio sky at 1.4 GHz. With its wide field of view (about 5 square degrees at 1.4 GHz), the ATA is one of the most powerful radio survey telescopes in the world. We will discuss the basic architecture of the ATA, and introduce ATATS (the ATA Twenty-cm Survey), an 800 square degree field which we have mapped repeatedly (19 times, as of September 2008) in a search for transient sources. As well as searching for changes from epoch to epoch, we are also able to build up a deep, multi-epoch image and associated catalog of the sky, which we can compare to previous surveys such as the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS).
