Cryogenic 1.2 to 116 GHz receiver for large arrays

Abstract

Current and future large arrays for radio astronomy are compared and the Next Generation Very Large Array, ngVLA, is introduced. Receiver requirements are described and a 4-feed system covering 1.2 to 116 GHz, in a single vacuum cryogenic enclosure is presented followed by description of the reflector optics, the wide-band feeds, and the expected system performance.
