Large format two dimensional arrays of bolometric detectors are required for many millimeter and submillimeter applications. We describe the development and testing of such arrays and the plans for using them in both a ground-based and airborne instrument.
The following types of experiments for a proposed Space Station Microgravity Particle Research Facility are described: (1) rheology of assemblies of inelastic, frictional particles; (2) grain dynamics in zero gravity; (3) properties of tenuous fractal aggregates; (4) orientation of weakly ferroelectric dust grains; (5) supersonic nozzle beam; and (6) some astrophysical cluster experiments. The required capabilities and desired hardware for the facility are detailed.
