Development and integration platform for astrophysics

The development and construction of space instruments is one of the strengths of the astrophysics department.

Instrumentation

Research at AIM is based on three pillars: space instrumentation, observations, and modeling. The AIM instrumentation team specializes in advanced astronomy detectors, guided by the question: "How can we create detectors to address specific astrophysical questions?" Collaborating closely with AIM's interpretation laboratories, the instrumentation team contributes to the design, testing, and utilization of space-based and ground-based instruments.
