The Long Wavelength Array (LWA) is a radio telescope under construction in central New Mexico. It is one of the few observatories to utilize relatively low frequencies (10-88 MHz), and is used to study relativistic particles, cosmic evolution, astrophysical plasma, decametric radio emissions from Jupiter-like extrasolar planets, and giant flares from magnetars. When complete, it will consist of 53 stations, with a total of 13,000 dipole antennas strategically placed in an area nearly in diameter, to scan the sky at HF and VHF frequencies. Each antenna stands about high and about across the base. The first station, located adjacent to the NRAO's VLA, consists of 256 antennas and was completed in December 2009. It was dedicated in April 2010, and routine operations began in 2011.〔 The second station (LWA2) is under construction about away.〔 〕 The project is a collaboration of UNM, VT, LANL, JPL, NRL, UI, BIRS, NRAO and AFRL.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://lwa.phys.unm.edu/ )〕 == See also ==
