We present the primary observational goal of the COBRAS mission and discuss the relative advantages of radiometric and bolometric techniques. A preliminary payload concept is presented. The COBRAS instrument and payload characteristics are based on a multifrequency observation in the < 130 GHz regime and are described here in some detail. Alternatives and additions, including a possible extension to higher frequencies, are considered.

Abstract

We present the primary observational goal of the COBRAS mission and discuss the relative advantages of radiometric and bolometric techniques. A preliminary payload concept is presented. The COBRAS instrument and payload characteristics are based on a multifrequency observation in the < 130 GHz regime and are described here in some detail. Alternatives and additions, including a possible extension to higher frequencies, are considered.
