by Tobias Westmeier (ICRAR/UWA)
Here is a close-up image of one of the second-generation (Mk2) ASKAP Phased-Array Feeds. This PAF was recently installed on ASKAP antenna No. 4, also known as Bimba ("Edible Gum") in the local Wajarri Yamatji language. The chequerboard array and external passive cooling elements are seen in some detail.
