The Balloon-Borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope for Polarimetry (Blast-Pol)

The Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope for Polarimetry (BLAST-Pol) is a suborbital mapping experiment designed to study the role of magnetic fields in star forming regions. BLAST-Pol utilizes 280 bolometric detectors to image the sky in three wavebands centered at 250, 350 and 500...
