Research Centers and Collaborations
Wisconsin Center for Origins Research (WiCOR)
WiCOR is a highly interdisciplinary team of scientists at UW-Madison aiming to answer questions such as: Are we alone? Where do we come from? Why are we here?
WHAM
The Wisconsin H-Alpha Mapper (WHAM) is an astronomical observatory tailored to study wide-spread, diffuse optical emission from the Milky Way.
GLIMPSE
When we first proposed to survey the inner 10-65 degrees of the Galactic plane with the Spitzer Space Telescope, we never dreamed it would be so successful.
GALFA
The Galactic Arecibo L-band Feed Array HI (GALFA-HI) Survey is an ongoing survey of the Galaxy in the 21 cm neutral hydrogen line conducted with the Arecibo Observatory 305-m telescope.
Ice Cube
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is the first detector of its kind, designed to observe the cosmos from deep within the South Pole ice.
SKA Pathfinder
These precursors are and will be in future carrying out scientific study related to future SKA activities, as well as helping the development and testing of new crucial SKA technologies.
