This project is supported by European Commission Framework Program 6 (FP6) in its part of infrastructure enhancement under contract 515906. ALMA Band 5 Receiver Cartridge Development and Production is assigned as WP2 in this project. European Southern Observatory is the main fund recipient and is responsible for the entire Project.
ALMA Band 5 is a European Commission (EC) Framework Program 6 (FP6) infrastructure enhancement project aiming at the development and design of a prototype receiver cartridge fulfilling specifications of ALMA Band 5. After the prototype cartridge is accepted, the project considers supplying 6 production cartridges for the ALMA Project for integration into the ALMA frontend receiver. Group for Advanced Receiver Development, OSO, Chalmers University, is responsible for cold cartridge assembly (CCA). STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK, are our partners in the ALMA Band 5 project and responsible for development of the Band 5 warm cartridge assembly (WCA) and the local oscillator (LO) sources.
