RPGModel Tau-225-Tau-225 -Tipping Radiometers for Tau/Opacity Measurements

SHARE

The RPG-Tau-225 and RPG-Tau-350 radiometers are designed for the estimation of atmospheric opacity (optical thickness, tau) in the observation bands of radio astronomy applications. Both of these sub-mm frequencies can easily be combined in one single instrument. Other frequencies are available.
