The FIRI Laboratory Testbed

The FIRI laboratory testbed is the the result of an effort by Cardiff University, the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) and UCL to develop an instrument to demonstrate the feasibility of the Double-Fourier technique at Far Infrared (FIR) wavelengths, which in a long term basis is expected to be the precursor of the space-based Far Infrared Interferometer (Helmich and Ivison 2009). It is currently located at the Physics and Astronomy Department of Cardiff University. This system is in constant development, and here the current design and issues, the latest results and the future planned improvements are presented. [Pg.41]


In this chapter the two Spectro-Spatial Interferometry Testbeds in which I have been involved during my programme have been presented the FIRI laboratory testbed and WIIT, the Wide-field Imaging Interferometry Testbed. Both testbeds demonstrate the theory of Double Fourier Spatio-Spectral Interferometry or the application of a Fourier-transform spectrometer (FTS) to aperture synthesis interferometry presented in the previous chapter, at far infrared wavelengths and optical wavelengths, respectively. [Pg.70]
