The Dual Feed receiver is an exact replica of the Multifeed receiver; it is cryogenic too and has the same nominal features as the Multifeed, though with a reduced number of feed (2) and channels (4). The feeds of this receiver are optimized for the coupling with the Medicina (IRA-INAF) 32 m antenna. In the…

43Ghz cryogenic receiver. This receiver is at the moment being used in the secondary focus of the Noto Antenna at the Radio Astronomy Institute of Inaf (IRA-INAF). The receiver works in the 39-43.5GHz band with double circular polarization. In the picture, there is a detail of the vacuum chamber made of aluminum and containing the…

The OMTs (OrthoMode Transducers) are passive components of front-ends of radio receivers, used in radio astronomy to separate orthogonal components in linear polarization of the electromagnetic signal coming from the celestial body under observation. In the image, there are the OMTs of the new 43Ghz Multifeed receiver featuring 19 elements made for the INAF Sardinia…

The OMTs (OrthoMode Transducers) are passive components of front-ends of radio receivers, used in radio astronomy to separate orthogonal components in linear polarization of the electromagnetic signal coming from the celestial body under observation. In the image, there are the OMTs of the new 100Ghz Multifeed. OMTs are produced using the platelet technology by CNC mechanical…
