Oscillations occur only if neutrinos have mass.
The implications for particle physics and cosmology will be explored. ALMA will be a revolutionary telescope, operating at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths and comprised of an array of individual antennas each 12 meters in diameter that work together to make precision images of astronomical objects. The goal of the ALMA Project is an array of 64 antennas that can be positioned as needed over an area 10 kilometers in diameter so as to give the array a zoom-lens capability. ALMA will image the universe with unprecedented sensitivity and sharpness at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths. The energy density of radiation from both the Milky Way and from the diffuse extragalactic background peaks in the submillimeter.
