Abstract
MISTRAL is a millimetric camera working in the W-band (78-103 GHz) which will take data from the Sardinia Radio Telescope, the Italian 64-m radio telescope located 50 km form Cagliari, at 600m above the sea level, in Sardinia. It is being built as a facility instrument by the Sapienza University for INAF, that manages the radio telescope, under a PON contract. It will consist of a compact cryostat hosting the re-imaging optics, cooled at 4K, and a 408-pixel array of photon-noise limited lumped element kinetic inductance detectors fabricated at CNR-IFN and cooled at a base temperature lower than 300mK. MISTRAL will be able to investigate a long list of scientific targets spanning from extragalactic astrophysics to solar system science, with high angular resolution (~ 12 arcsec), including Sunyaev Zel'dovich effect measurements and the study of the Cosmic Web.
