Scientific paper

A submillimeter wavelength interferometer array built by the Smith Astrophysical Observatory is described. The telescope is to be located at a high mountain site and will operate in the major atmospheric windows from 200 to 900 GHz. The array is to consist of six antennas, each 6 m in diameter. All antennas are to be movable over a Y shaped track with maximum baselines of several hundred meters. The facility is designed to operate simultaneously at two different frequencies, and is equipped with a versatile digital spectrometer permitting measurements of many different lines at once.
