The main objective of laboratory #235 is development of imaging array detectors for different applications (including radio-astronomy, safety and security systems). We develop ultra-sensitive detectors (bolometers) and detector arrays, planar antennas and tuning circuits, refractive and reflective quasi-optical systems focusing millimeter and sub-millimeter wave irradiation on the detectors. ...

... In collaborative work with David Garc?a Alvarez (an Observatory PhD student now at Harvard) and John Butler, an extensive study of the RS CVn binary HR1099 was completed leading to two papers; the first on Doppler imaging and the second on flare activity. Spectra for the Doppler imaging were taken at two different sites, Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO), Arizona, and Mount Stromlo Observatory (MSO), Australia, during the 1998 MUltiSIte COntinuous Spectroscopic (MUSICOS) campaign. ...
