英国亚毫米波与毫米波天文学路线图2024
The UK Submillimetre and Millimetre Astronomy Roadmap 2024
AI总结:
该路线图基于对英国亚毫米波/毫米波天文学界的调研与审查,提出英国应作为AtLAST和JCMT的关键合作伙伴,并维持及增强对ALMA的参与和仪器开发主导权,以实现单口径望远镜与干涉阵列的协同发展。
摘要:
在本路线图中,我们提出了对未来十年及以后英国亚毫米波和毫米波天文学发展的愿景。本路线图是根据STFC天文学咨询小组(AAP)在《AAP天文学路线图2022》中的建议制定的。为了确定我们的战略优先事项和建议,我们对英国亚毫米波和毫米波研究群体进行了调查,以确定他们对该领域近期和长期未来发展的关键优先事项。我们进一步对英国在亚毫米波/毫米波科学和仪器设备方面的领导地位进行了详细审查。我们的关键战略优先事项如下:1. 英国必须成为即将建设的AtLAST望远镜的关键合作伙伴,为此,英国在中期内继续作为JCMT的关键合作伙伴至关重要。2. 英国必须维持并在可能的情况下加强对ALMA的使用权,并力争在ALMA2040的仪器开发中主导部分工作。我们的战略优先事项相互补充:AtLAST(一座50米单口径望远镜)与升级后的ALMA(一个大型可配置干涉阵列)将形成协同效应,而非相互竞争。两者均已确定并正在朝着相同的总体科学目标努力,且要全面实现这些目标,两者都是必需的。
英文摘要:
In this Roadmap, we present a vision for the future of submillimetre and millimetre astronomy in the United Kingdom over the next decade and beyond. This Roadmap has been developed in response to the recommendation of the Astronomy Advisory Panel (AAP) of the STFC in the AAP Astronomy Roadmap 2022. In order to develop our stragetic priorities and recommendations, we surveyed the UK submillimetre and millimetre community to determine their key priorities for both the near-term and long-term future of the field. We further performed detailed reviews of UK leadership in submillimetre/millimetre science and instrumentation. Our key strategic priorities are as follows: 1. The UK must be a key partner in the forthcoming AtLAST telescope, for which it is essential that the UK remains a key partner in the JCMT in the intermediate term. 2. The UK must maintain, and if possible enhance, access to ALMA and aim to lead parts of instrument development for ALMA2040. Our strategic priorities complement one another: AtLAST (a 50m single-dish telescope) and an upgraded ALMA (a large configurable interferometric array) would be in synergy, not competition, with one another. Both have identified and are working towards the same overarching science goals, and both are required in order to fully address these goals.
