OVRO-LWA
(Owens Valley Long Wavelength Array)
(radio telescope in California)
OVRO-LWA (for Owens Valley Long Wavelength Array)
is a radio telescope at Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO), California,
consisting of an array of 352 dipole antennas.
It began operation in 2013, with 256 antennas
(essentially a duplicate of LWA1, which is
a portion of the LWA located near the VLA in New Mexico).
Subsequently, a substantial correlator
(LEDA, Large-aperture Experiment to detect the Dark Age)
has been added. One of its intended tasks is a line intensity mapping
survey of the 21-cm line
over 15 < z < 30.
