The SPST Science Workshop and later analyses have identified the critical projects that
drive the telescope design.
- Bolometer Arrays and the Future of
Single-Dish Submillimeter Telescopes
-
Large bolometer arrays will revolutionize the sensitivity of
single-dish submillimeter-wave telescopes and make them an indispensable
adjunct to interferometric arrays like ALMA and SMA.
-
- Comparison with other Instruments
-
The SPST is an "optimal design" for wide-field, deep
observations.
-
- Sensitivity of Submillimeter-wave Telescopes
-
- The comparative strength of the SPST is for wide-field, deep
observations.
-
-
- Phase A Design Study
-
A design study was conducted by the SAO Central Engineering
Department using funding contributed by the Smithsonian
Institution.
-
- Why an offset Gregorian?
-
An offset design allows large instrument packages to be mounted
at a wide-field focus.
