Balloon-borne Large-Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST)
BLAST incorporates a 2-m primary mirror with large-format bolometer arrays operating at 250
, 350
and 500
microns.
BLAST provides surveys from 0.8
to 200
deg2 at a resolution of 30“
, 42”
and 60“
.
The units of the HEALPix maps are Mjy/sr
.
A detailed description of BLAST can be found in the following paper http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2008ApJ...681..400P
