The Potential for Far-infrared Astronomy in Australia
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Extract
Despite its superb optical and radio observatories, Australia is essentially blind to the entire submillimeter and far-infrared spectrum. The importance of this spectral region can perhaps best be illustrated by reference to Figure 1, which shows the flux of the galaxy NGC253 as a function of frequency.
