| AETHRA (Advanced European Technologies for Heterodyne Receivers for Astronomy) aims at exploiting new technologies, such as highly integrated microelectronic semi- or superconducting circuits, to significantly improve the next generation receivers of mm and sub-mm wavelength telescopes, reinforcing European technological and scientific leadership by considerably improving the receiver performance and observing speed of the European-owned world- leading facilities ALMA, APEX, NOEMA and PV. The most effective means to boost the observing speed of those instruments at a reasonable cost consist of: | AETHRA (Advanced European Technologies for Heterodyne Receivers for Astronomy) aims at exploiting new technologies, such as highly integrated microelectronic semi- or superconducting circuits, to significantly improve the next generation receivers of mm and sub-mm wavelength telescopes, reinforcing European technological and scientific leadership by considerably improving the receiver performance and observing speed of the European-owned world- leading facilities ALMA, APEX, NOEMA and PV.
