This project is for the development of two technologies: (1) a magnetic bearing; and (2) broad-band, cryogenic, anti-reflection coatings, both of which could be useful for high sensitivity measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation. The technology will be applicable to a broad range of astrophysical measurements, and the technology development will involve the education of graduate students in advanced instrumentation techniques.

该项目是为了开发两项技术：(1)磁轴承；(2)宽带低温减反射涂层，这两种涂层都可用于高灵敏度测量宇宙微波背景辐射的偏振。这项技术将适用于广泛的天体物理测量，技术开发将涉及到对研究生进行先进仪器技术的教育。
