BINGO
(Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in Neutral Gas Observations)
(future radio telescope for mapping distant neutral hydrogen)
BINGO (for Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in Neutral Gas Observations)
is a radio telescope under construction in Brazil to detect
baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) through intensity mapping of the 21-cm line to
produce a three-dimensional map of neutral atomic hydrogen out to z ≈
0.5. It is also expected to detect fast radio bursts (FRBs).
It is a transit telescope with 40-meter non-moving
reflectors configured as a cross Dragone telescope, focusing on a
50-feedhorn array. It will cover a 15-degree declination
strip of the celestial sphere. It will acquire sufficient
integration time for the target signal-to-noise ratio through its daily
repeated observations.
