BERKELEY ILLINOIS MARYLAND ASSOCIATION

The Berkeley Illinois Maryland Association (BIMA) is a consortium consisting of:
*Radio Astronomy Laboratory at The University of California, Berkeley
Laboratory for Astronomical Imaging at The University of Illinois, Urbana
Laboratory for Millimeter-Wave Astronomy at The University of Maryland
which operates a millimeter-wave radio interferometer at Hat Creek, California. Currently, there is an agreement between the BIMA consortium and Academia Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics (ASIAA) which provides ASIAA with 10% of the observing time on the BIMA array; this agreement is on a year-to-year basis.
