Abstract

The article discusses the prospects for developing the observational base at the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SAO RAS) for astrophysical research in the millimeter-wave range. As a first step, a project is proposed to create a set of sub-terahertz receiving equipment to operate at the optical BTA telescope. Additionally, the possibility of installing a new instrument to operate in the frequency range of up to 230 GHz (\(\lambda=1.3\) mm) at the Upper Research Site of SAO RAS is considered. Technical and operational characteristics of the instrument, site selection for the installation of a fully steerable millimeter-wave antenna, statistics of meteorological data and atmospheric absorption are discussed. A list of potential scientific tasks addressed by instruments of this class is provided.

俄罗斯科学院特别天体物理观测台（SAO RAS）毫米波天文学的发展前景

摘要文章讨论了俄罗斯科学院特别天体物理观测台（SAO RAS）发展毫米波范围天体物理研究观测基地的前景。作为第一步，建议实施一个项目，建立一套亚太赫兹接收设备，在光学 BTA 望远镜上运行。此外，还考虑了在 SAO RAS 上部研究场址安装一台新仪器的可能性，以在高达 230 GHz （\(\lambda=1.3\) mm）的频率范围内运行。讨论了仪器的技术和运行特点、安装完全可转向毫米波天线的选址、气象数据统计和大气吸收。还提供了该类仪器可能完成的科学任务清单。
