活动简介

This conference is the latest in the series on Ground Based and Airborne Telescopes. Progress in the field continues at an exciting pace: several large ground-based and airborne facilities have recently continued science operations, including the Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT) with an Educational & Public Outreach, the Large Millimeter Telescope (LMT) is doing early science and telescopes adjustments, the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA) is in Cycle 3 and releasing their verification data, the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) is doing their Data Release 1, SkyMapper, the New Solar Telescope (NST) is doing cool science out of this telescope, and the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) has Cycle 4 proposals in and completed a 2nd Southern Deployment. Many existing facilities have undergone recent upgrades to keep their capabilities competitive, the Hobby-Eberly Telescope (HET) which is initiating a Dark Energy Experiment and new tracker.

Construction has begun on the Five-hundred meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST), the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKist) which is progressing wonderfully. We have early starts on the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) and the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) which is finishing its mirrors. Other large telescopes are early starts including the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) on Mauna Kea, CCAT, and the Square Kilometer Array SKA. And new facilities are being developed to detect gamma rays by observing Cherenkov radiation.
