The MAGIC Telescope project
The 17 m diameter MAGIC telescope aims for gamma-ray astronomy above 15 GeV. The technical concept and status of the detector component developments for the first phase with a classical photomultiplier camera (threshold 30 GeV) will be given. The physics program will be reviewed in a separate contribution.
متن کاملAn Australia Telescope survey for CMB anisotropies
We have surveyed six distinct ‘empty fields’ using the Australia Telescope Compact Array in an ultra-compact configuration with the aim of imaging, with a high brightness sensitivity, any arcmin-scale brightness-temperature anisotropies in the background radio sky. The six well-separated regions were observed at a frequency of 8.7 GHz and the survey regions were limited by the ATCA primary beam...
متن کاملMillimetre Science with the Upgraded Australia Telescope
A new astronomical window into the southern skies has been opened with the high-frequency upgrade to the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), which allows radio-interferometric mapping of sources at wavelengths as short as 3mm. In anticipation of the upgrade’s completion, a two-day workshop was held at the University of Melbourne in November 2001. The workshop covered a diverse range of fi...
متن کاملWho Is Easier to Nudge?
We study heterogeneity in the responsiveness to choice architecture, focusing on the propensity of low-income versus high-income employees to opt out of the default contribution rate in 401(k) retirement savings plans. We develop a statistical model to distinguish between two underlying sources of heterogeneity: low-income employees may be more likely to remain at the default because it is simi...
متن کاملTo nudge or not to nudge: cancer screening programmes and the limits of libertarian paternalism.
'Nudging--and the underlying idea 'libertarian paternalism'--to an increasing degree influences policy thinking in the healthcare sector. This article discusses the influence exerted upon a woman's choice of participation in the Danish breast screening programme in light of 'libertarian paternalism'. The basic tenet of 'libertarian paternalism' is outlined and the relationship between 'libertar...
