Observing the High Redshift Universe with a TES-based 2mm Bolometer Camera at the IRAM 30 m Telescope

该项目的科学目标是获得快速观测宇宙早期恒星形成时期的能力，这体现在尘埃覆盖的高红移超明亮星系的重新辐射热发射上。该项目将支持2毫米波长测辐射热计相机的调试和早期科学操作，该相机经过优化，可以有效地观测高红移星系，而不需要良好的天气条件。该仪器将安装在西班牙皮科·维莱塔的一个30米望远镜上。这些观测的结果将直接提供给未来的詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜和阿塔卡马大毫米阵列的科学计划。

The scientific goal of the project is to obtain the capability to rapidly observe the epoch of early star formation in the universe, manifested in the reradiated thermal emission from dusty, high-redshift ultra luminous galaxies. This project will support the commissioning and early science operations of the a 2 millimeter wavelength bolometer camera that is optimized to efficiently observe the high-redshift galaxies without requiring excellent weather conditions. The instrument will be installed on a 30 meter telescope on Pico Veleta in Spain. Results from these observations will feed directly into the science programs of the future James Webb Space Telescope and the Atacama Large Millimeter Array.
