Abstract
The Arcminute Microkelvin Imager is a pair of interferometer arrays operating with six frequency channels spanning 13.9-18.2 GHz, for observations on angular scales of 30 arcsec-10 arcmin and for declinations greater than -15°; the Small Array has a sensitivity of 30 mJy s-1/2 and the Large Array has a sensitivity of 3 mJy s-1/2. The telescope is aimed principally at Sunyaev-Zel'dovich imaging of clusters of galaxies. We discuss the design of the telescope and describe and explain its electronic and mechanical systems. © 2008 RAS.
