Fig. 7

Illustration of the effects of beam squint and its correction. Left panel: the ratio of the RCP and LCP amplitudes on a few selected baselines before primary beam correction. The pointing centres are indicated at the bottom of the diagram. Deviations from unity are caused by the RCP and LCP beams pointed at different positions. Right panel: the same visibilities after primary beam correction. The differences have essentially be eliminated.
