HEAT stands for "High Elevation Antarctic Terahertz telescope".
Pre-HEAT is the first implementation of a submillimeter telescope at the summit of the Antarctic ice plateau, Dome A, an elevation of 4100 meters and a pressure altitude of 4700 meters. Pre-HEAT is a 20 centimeter aperture telescope coupled to a 660 GHz Schottky diode mixer receiver and a digital FFT spectrometer. Its successor, HEAT, will be a 50 cm telescope with cooled 0.8, 1.4 and 1.9 THz Schottky diode receivers at first light. Future upgrades to a 4K SIS and HEB receiver system will follow.Feel free to browse the Pre-HEAT data archive shown at left.
