General
Information
======================
The 2K1BC Workshop "Experimental
Cosmology at millimetre wavelengths" will be held during July 9 - 12, 2001
in Breuil-Cervinia (AO - Val d'Aosta) Italy. The aim of this Workshop is
to present the current status and discuss real high performance experiments
devoted to exploring the sky at millimetre wavelengths. The improvements
in all the items of a specific instrument have made it possible to reach
observational targets up until now improbable.
Everyone who has "hands
on" experimental topics concerning cosmological observations in the millimetre
range and the theoreticians that have practical suggestions for experimentalists
concerning research areas not well explored yet are welcome!
All the aspects of an
experimental set-up should be explored: instruments, ground and space platforms,
detectors, optics, cryogenics, electronics, data acquisition, data reduction
and analysis.
A presentation of recent
data is welcome.
Call
for Participation
======================
We would like to invite
all interested colleagues to participate in this Workshop. Oral sessions
will consist in invited talks and several contributed talks. Other contributed
papers will be presented in the poster sessions.
