Abstract

The paper describes the characteristics and current state of the Bauman Moscow State Technical University (BMSTU) millimeter radio telescope RT-7.5. We present the results of modeling in multi-beam operating mode at the RT-7.5. A concept of low-cost matrix receivers operating at the wavelengths of 3 and 2 mm is proposed, which can significantly reduce the time needed to obtain solar maps. The expected model images of solar subterahertz flares with a positive spectral slope at 3 and 2 mm are presented.

Keywords: Sun, radio telescope, multi-beam operating mode, matrix receivers, solar flares, millimeter radio emission, chromosphere
