VELAZQUEZ DE LA ROSA BECERRA, MIGUEL

I am heavily interested in the evolutionary stages of the large scale-structure in the Universe, mainly through observations of high-redshift dusty galaxies with the new generation of telescopes (i.e. LTM/ México) and new detection technologies. My research broadly addressed cryogenic detectors applied on astronomical instrumentation at millimeter wavelengths, i.e. Transition Edge Sensors (TES), Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID´s). Microwave Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA´s) operated at cryogenic temperatures < 1K. I am leading the research efforts on these technologies i.e. 10x10 pixels prototype camera to be operated at 2 mm wavelength, based on KID´s. The camera will be part of the scientific instrumentation of the Large Millimeter Telescope, also I´m heavily involved on the developing of the new cameras for the LMT, the 3 bands camera called TolTEC and the 1.2 mm camera MUSCAT.
