Orange image around the center shows the dusty envelope + disk at submillimeter wavelength obtained with ALMA at 200 AU resolution.

Gravitational lensing is a powerful astrophysical and cosmological probe and is particularly valuable at submillimeter wavelengths for the study of the statistical and individual properties of dusty star - forming galaxies.

«Only a few gravitationally lensed galaxies have been found before at these submillimeter wavelengths, but now ALMA's found dozens of them.

Japanese participation will allow enhanced imaging and spectroscopy, especially at submillimeter wavelengths.

With these high - precision components, ALMA will open up new possibility for observations with surprisingly high resolution at submillimeter wavelengths, which will make a great contribution to the study of the formation of galaxies and planetary systems as well as the evolution of interstellar matters.

The new identification method is based on molecular line emission at submillimeter wavelengths.

ALMA is attracting worldwide attention as the first telescope that allows polarization observations at submillimeter wavelengths.

Not exact matches

AzTEC - 3, which is located in the direction of the constellation Sextans, is what astronomers refer to as a submillimeter galaxy, since it shines brightly in that portion of the spectrum, but is remarkably dim at optical and infrared wavelengths.

Their properties are still difficult to ascertain, however, because the combination of interference from dust and the low spatial resolution of submillimeter telescopes prevents further study at other wavelengths.

ALMA will consist of 64 12 - meter - diameter dish antennas comprising a single imaging telescope to study the universe at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths — the region between radio waves and infrared waves.

The telescope will observe the universe at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths, between infrared light and radio waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.

These are expected to have become rapidly enshrouded in the dust produced by the first stars; the dust absorbs much of the starlight making the galaxies difficult to see in the optical wavebands, but these same galaxies shine brightly at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths.
