ZEUS: the Starformation History of the Universe

AST-0705256/Stacey/Cornell该项目包括对能够对星系进行亚毫米波光谱分析的焦平面阵列探测器的升级。这个阵列被称为Zeus，意为红移(Z)和早期宇宙光谱仪。原型仪器已经展示了它观察恒星爆发星系的能力，恒星爆发星系是角度延伸的来源，适合于像宙斯这样的成像阵列。此次升级包括更多像素(从1x32工程阵列到5x50科学阵列)。

AST-0705256/Stacey/CornellThis project covers an upgrade of a focal-plane array detector capable of submillimeter-wave spectroscopy of galaxies. The array is called ZEUS, for redshift (Z) and Early Universe Spectrometer. The prototype instrument has demonstrated its ability to make observations of starburst galaxies, which are angularly extended sources that lend themselves to imaging arrays such as ZEUS. The upgrade covers additional pixels (from a 1x32 engineering array to a 5x50 science array).
