Abstract: |
CCAT will be a 25-meter telescope for submillimeter astronomy
located at 5600 m altitude on Cerro Chajnantor in northern Chile.
CCAT will combine high sensitivity, a wide field of view, and a
broad wavelength range (0.35 to 2.1 mm) to provide an unprecedented
capability for deep, large-area multicolor submillimeter. It
is planned to have a suite of instruments including large format KID
cameras, a large heterodyne array and a KID-based
direct detection multi-object spectrometer. The remote location
drives a desire for fully autonomous observing coupled with data
reduction pipelines and fast feedback to principal investigators. |
