The Line Emission Terahertz Observatory (LETO): Exploring the lifecycle of the ISM and the origins of water
Dimitra Rigopoulou, Peter Roelfsema, William Grainger +13
The Interstellar Medium (ISM) is the reservoir of baryonic matter from which stars and planetary systems are formed. It is also the repository of the material that is expelled at t…
The PLATO Mission
Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842
PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…
4x2 Hot electron bolometer mixer arrays for detection at 1.46, 1.9 and 4.7 THz for a balloon borne terahertz observatory
José R. G. Silva, Wouter M. Laauwen, Behnam Mirzaei +10
We have demonstrated three 4x2 hot electron bolometer (HEB) mixer arrays for operation at local oscillator (LO) frequencies of 1.46, 1.9 and 4.7 THz, respectively. They consist of…
Enhanced Sensitivity of THz NbN Hot Electron Bolometer Mixers
B. Mirzaei, J. R. G. Silva, W. J. Vreeling +3
We studied the effect of the NbN/Au contact on the sensitivities of a NbN hot electron bolometer (HEB) mixer by measuring the double sideband (DSB) receiver noise temperature (T_re…
SPICA - a large cryogenic infrared space telescope Unveiling the obscured Universe
P. R. Roelfsema, H. Shibai, L. Armus +66
Measurements in the infrared wavelength domain allow us to assess directly the physical state and energy balance of cool matter in space, thus enabling the detailed study of the va…
