MUSCAT: The Mexico-UK Sub-Millimetre Camera for AsTronomy

TL;DR: The Mexico-UK Sub-millimetre Camera for AsTronomy (MUSCAT) is a large-format, millimetre-wave camera consisting of 1,500 background-limited lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors (LEKIDs) scheduled for deployment on the Large Millimeter Telescope in 2018.

ISO LWS measurement of the far-infrared spectrum of Saturn

TL;DR: The spectrum of Saturn from 43 to 197μm was measured with the ISO Long Wavelength Spectrometer (LWS) during the performance verification phase of the mission as discussed by the authors, and the spectrum was compared with an atmospheric radiative-transfer model and four results were obtained: first, the slope of the measured continuum within each detector passband is in good agreement with the model; second, absorption features due to ammonia and phosphine were unambiguously detected, and all detected features were attributed to these two molecules; third, the ammonia absorption features agree reasonably well with the nominal model

Antenna-Coupled Bolometer Arrays for Measurement of the Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization

TL;DR: Chattopadhyay and Zmuidzinas as mentioned in this paper used a double slot dipole antenna and an integrated microstrip band defining filter to measure the polarization of the cosmic microwave background.

BLASTbus electronics: general-purpose readout and control for balloon-borne experiments

S. J. Benton, +77 more
- 22 Jul 2014 - 
TL;DR: The second generation BLASTbus as mentioned in this paper uses a flexible motherboard-daughterboard architecture for balloon-borne telescopes, with a digital signal processor (DSP) and field-programmable gate array (FPGA) as well as slots for three daughterboards.

SCUBA-2: Developing the Detectors

TL;DR: SCUBA-2 as mentioned in this paper is a second generation wide-field sub-millimeter camera under development for the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT), which will map the submillimeter sky ~1000 times faster than the current SCUBA instrument to the same signal-to-noise.
