The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) is an optical/near-infrared multifiber spectrograph with 2394 science fibers distributed across a 1.3-deg diameter field of view at the Subaru 8.2-m telescope. wide wavelength coverage from 0.38 μm to 1.26 μm, resolving power 3000, simultaneously strengthens its ability target three main survey programs: cosmology, galactic archaeology and galaxy/AGN evolution. A medium resolution mode 5000 for 0.71 0.89 will also be available by simply exchanging...
The Jason-3 mission employs the Advanced Microwave Radiometer (AMR) to provide a tropospheric path delay measurement in support of ocean altimetry. NOAA and EUMETSAT are lead agencies with CNES NASA/JPL providing implementation support. continues measurements TOPEX/Poseidon <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">[1]</xref> , rid="ref2" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">[2]</xref> Jason-1, Ocean...

The Compact Ocean Wind Vector Radiometer (COWVR) was developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory as a proof of concept technology demonstration mission for Air Force. COWVR is fully polarimetric imaging radiometer system operating 18.7, 23.8, and 33.9 GHz . Its receiver subsystem based on Jason-3 advanced microwave radiometer, which launched in early 2016 currently operation. enabling components are presented this article, including phase-matched waveguide components, noise injection,...
