ALMA Memo #303

Water Vapour Radiometers for ALMA

This is a discussion document setting out the options for performing atmospheric phase corrections by means of radiometry. It is a lightly edited version of a paper prepared for the March 2000 meeting of the Science Advisory Committee. We have tried to take account the comments received by not yet responding to the conclusions of that meeting.

A great deal already has been written on this subject. In particular, the relevant memos and other documents have been summarised on the ALMA web site at: http://www.alma.nrao.edu/development/cal_imaging/phasecal.html.
