Previous: Call for Observing Proposals
Proposals for three types of receivers will be considered for the
coming summer semester:
- the observatory's set of four dual polarization heterodyne
receivers centered at wavelengths of 3, 2, 1.3, and 1.1 mm.
- the 9 pixel dual-polarization heterodyne receiver array,
HERA, operating at 1.3 mm wavelength
- a 1.2 mm bolometer array with 37 or 117 pixels
Emphasis will be put on observations at the
longer wavelengths.
In total, about 2800 hours of observing time will be available,
which should allow
scheduling of a few longer programmes (up to hours).
The main news, proposal formalities, details of the various receivers,
and observing modes are described below.
