The Simons Observatory: The Large Aperture Telescope (LAT)

The Simons Observatory: The Large Aperture Telescope (LAT)

The Simons Observatory is a Cosmic Microwave Background experiment to observe the microwave sky in six frequency bands from 30 to 290 GHz. The Observatory—at ∼5200 m altitude—comprises three Small Aperture Telescopes and one Large Aperture Telescope (LAT) at the Atacama Desert, Chile. This research...

Zusammenfassung:The Simons Observatory is a Cosmic Microwave Background experiment to observe the microwave sky in six frequency bands from 30 to 290 GHz. The Observatory—at ∼5200 m altitude—comprises three Small Aperture Telescopes and one Large Aperture Telescope (LAT) at the Atacama Desert, Chile. This research note describes the design and current status of the LAT along with its future timeline.
