Abstract

An experiment has been developed in order to map the submillimetre Galactic emission at four different wavelengths between 400 μm and 2 mm at an angular scale of 1°. A binocular telescope system has been realised by means of two off-axis wobbling parabolic mirrors, each one coupled to a two-channel 3He photometer. A first run of observations from Dome C is planned for the Antarctic summer 1995–96.
