| Main Objective: 2nd Phase of the International Galactic Emission Mapping at Portugal. - test and installation of the 2.3GHz total power radiometer assembled in Brazil (by Marco bersannelli, Deputy-PI of Planck Surveyor sattellite) to complete the 2.3 GHz North Hemisphere survey in S-band - Calibration with cold load/hot load of the C-band correlator; calibration and first-light fo the polarimeter receiver. Overal: production of the first digital complex base-band cross-correllator using FPGA chips applyed to radioastronomy surveys. |
