Near-Infrared Detector Development for Deep Surveys of Distant Galaxies

在近红外区域敏感的阵列探测器的出现 电磁频谱的变化有望彻底改变 天文观测在这个波长间隔。 一 大学联盟已利用非联邦资金开展了 一项与以下机构合作的此类探测器的开发计划： 洛克威尔 该奖项为Hereld博士领导 测试和评估洛氏探测器，并使用这些 探测器在一个研究计划，以寻找非常年轻的星系。

The advent of array detectors sensitive in the near infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum promises to revolutionize astronomical observations in this wavelength interval. A consortium of universities has, with non-federal funds, undertaken a development program for such detectors in cooperation with Rockwell. this award provides support for Dr. Hereld to lead the test and evaluation of the Rockwell detectors, and to use these detectors in a research program to search for very young galaxies.
