摘要
En 中文
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will be an ultrasensitive radio telescope, built to further the understanding of the most important phenomena in the Universe, including some pertaining to the birth and eventual death of the Universe itself. Over the next few years, the SKA will make the transition from an early formative to a well-defined design. This paper outlines how the scientific challenges are translated into technical challenges, how the application of recent technology offers the potential of affordably meeting these challenges, and how the choices of technology will ultimately be made. The SKA will be an array of coherently connected antennas spread over an area about 3000 km in extent, with an aggregate antenna collecting area of up to 106m(2) at centimeter and meter wavelengths. A key scientific requirement is the ability to carry out sensitive observations of the sky over large areas (surveys). The survey speed of the SKA will be enabled by the application of the most up-to-date signal-processing technology available. The SKA science impact will be widely felt in astroparticle physics and cosmology, fundamental physics, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, solar system science, and astrobiology.
