Optical design of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope and the Millimeter Bolometric Array Camera
2007
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope is a 6 m telescope designed to map
the cosmic microwave background simultaneously at 145, 215,
and
280 GHz with arcminute resolution. Each frequency will have a 32 by
32 element focal plane array of transition edge sensor bolometers. The telescope and the cold reimaging optics are optimized for
millimeter-wave observations with these sensitive detectors. The design of each is described.
