Abstract
AbstractWe are developing a future space VLBI mission, ARISE, that would involve placing a VLBA-equivalent radio telescope in a highly elliptical Earth orbit. The telescope would operate at VLBI frequencies of 5, 22, 43, and 86 GHz, as well as being capable of single-dish operation at 60 GHz. Fringe-detection thresholds will be less than 10 mJy except at 86 GHz. Key scientific goals include dual-polarization imaging of blazars on the same physical scale as their γ-ray emission, astrophysical and astrometric studies of extragalactic water megamasers, and single-dish observations of O2.
