Instruments and Methods 133 Sky temperature resolution by microwave radiometry A.G. Kislyakov State University, Nizhny Novgorod, Russia Introduction The threshold sensitivity of a radiometer is determined by well known equation Karlov & Manenkov, 1966 " hE i = h hn i +1 hn i + N t G0 , 1 G0 1=2 : 1 Here we denote hE ias the minimum detectable increment of radiation spectral density E at a frequency . ... Equation 3 gives a correction to the expression for limit detector sensitivity Kislyakov, 1997. ...

The basic characteristics of the instrument are set by the aperture, focal length and resolution of the image forming lens, the dispersion of the spectrometer, and the sensitivity of the detector. ... The lens is internally focused, and maintains acceptable focus (2 pixels in the detector plane) over a typical spectral coverage of one grating setting. ... along the spatial dimension of a 25mm square detector in the final spectral image plane the 400mm lens is 3.2њ. ... Diffraction grating . ...

Experiment COLD . ... JSEC Astronomy . ... The entire project was called "Experiment Cold". ... The best radiometer (in terms of fluctuation sensitivity) known to us, based on a parametric amplifier with a closed-cycle helium cooling system, was used in the experiment; measures were taken to "cool" the radio telescope itself; and a method of controlling the numerous sources of interference was carefully thought out. ...

Far Side of the Sun . ... Credit Copyright: MDI-SOI , SOHO Consortium , ESA , NASA Explanation: You may think it's impossible to see through the Sun , but maps of the Sun's far side are now made routinely by instruments on board the sun-staring SOHO spacecraft. This is one such map from April 12. At right, is a map projection of calculated magnetic field strengths on the Earth-facing solar hemisphere with yellow and red indicating high magnetic fields characteristic of solar active regions. ...
