  • Development of Coherent Detector Technologies for Sub-Millimetre Wave Astronomy Observations

    de Boon Kok Tan ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The thesis describes the development of receiver technologies for sub-millimetre astronomy instruments, focusing on high performance coherent cryogenic detectors operating close to the superconductor gap frequency. The mixer chip which comprises the SIS devices, fed by a unilateral finline and matching planar circuits was fabricated on 15 micron silicon substrate using the recently developed ... Leer más

  • The Hubble Space Telescope

    From Concept to Success

    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The highly successful Hubble Space Telescope was meant to change our view and understanding of the universe. Within weeks of its launch in 1990, however, the space community was shocked to find out that the primary mirror of the telescope was flawed. It was only the skills of scientists and engineers on the ground and the daring talents of astronauts sent to service the telescope in December 1993 ... Leer más
