Technology for Submillimeter Astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium Digest IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium, 2007
Despite about three decades of progress, the field of submillimeter astronomy remains quite challenging, because the detection technology is still under development and the transmission of the atmosphere is poor. The latter problem has been overcome by constructing submillimeter telescopes at excellent sites, first on Mauna Kea and later in Chile and ...

The fastscanning observing technique for millimeter and submillimeter astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2001
Fastscanning is a new observing technique for millimeter and submillimeter astronomy from ground based telescopes. The atmosphere is eliminated by taking advantage of detector arrays. Instead of wobbling the secondary mirror with a fixed frequency of a few Hz to filter the atmospheric contribution, we sample the detector outputs at a much higher rate ...

A Low-Insertion Loss Cryogenic Edge-Mode Isolator With 18 GHz Bandwidth

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Microwaves, 2023
Cryogenic isolators play an important role in low-noise receiver systems widely employed in millimeter and submillimeter telescopes. To enable a significantly wider Intermediate Frequency (IF) bandwidth, there is strong demand for a wideband, low-loss ...

2 mm Observations and the Search for High-redshift Dusty Star-forming Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Finding high-redshift ( z ≫ 4) dusty star-forming galaxies is extremely challenging. It has recently been suggested that millimeter selections may be the best approach since the negative K-correction makes galaxies at a given far-infrared luminosity ...

Measurements and Evaluations of the Atmospheric Transparency at Short Millimeter Wavelengths at Candidate Sites for Millimeter- and Sub-Millimeter-Wave Telescopes

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Radio astronomical observations at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths are a very important tool for astrophysical research. However, there is a huge area in northeastern Eurasia, including the whole Russian territory, which lacks sufficiently large

Lack of Correlations between Cold Molecular Gas and AGN Properties in Type 1 AGNs at z ≲ 0.5

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present new NOrthern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA) observations of the CO(2–1) emission in eight of the brightest Palomar-Green quasars at z ≲ 0.5 to investigate the role of active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback in luminous quasars detected at ...

Uranus’s and Neptune’s Stratospheric Water Abundance and Vertical Profile from Herschel-HIFI

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2022
Here we present new constraints on Uranus’s and Neptune’s externally sourced stratospheric water abundance using disk-averaged observations of the 557 GHz emission line from Herschel’s Heterodyne Instrument for the Far-Infrared.
