Research Introduction
|
Research development of Radio Astronomy Observatory of Shanghai technology more than 30 years of history, now has a radio astronomical observation base, VLBI laboratory and VLBI processing center. After many years of accumulation of technology, in the world with the developed countries, the common development of new technology, VLBI development of VLBI observation and recording equipment, such as: cooling dual polarization receiver, digital recording of VLBI terminal, digital baseband repeater (DBBC), real-time VLBI technology and VLBI data processor.
Radio astronomy observation base is responsible for running the two radio telescope, diameter were 65 meters (Tianma telescope) and 25 meters (east of Sheshan). Sheshan 25 meter telescope is Chinese VLBI network, European VLBI network (EVN) and the international geodetic / astrometry VLBI service organization (IVS) member, every year to participate in domestic and foreign VLBI conjunction; play an important role in the high resolution Astrophysics and high precision astrometry and other research areas, and received great attention from international counterparts the. Tianma telescope was completed in 2012, 2013 by the end of the comprehensive inspection, with four low frequency (L, S, C, X) band observation ability, will be China's radio astronomy has made breakthrough contribution. The radio room not only pay attention to astrophysics and Astronomy and so on basic research, more attention will be advanced radio astronomical observation technology and national important engineering task combination, innovation of the precise orbit determination using VLBI technology on the satellite, successfully participate in precision orbit determination of Chang'e-1 satellite using VLBI network in China, the technology also will be applied to the country's future deep space exploration. |
