The Low Frequency Instrument The Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) is an array of 52 tuned radio receivers which will be placed in the focal plane of the Planck telescope, and will image the sky in three frequency channels between 30 and 70 GHz. The LFI will be designed and built by a Consortium of scientists led by Reno Mandolesi of the Istituto Fisica Spaziale e Fisica Cosmica (IASF) in Bologna (Italy). The other main institutes involved in the LFI Consortium are: - Chalmers University of Technology, in Goteborg (S)
- Danish Space Research Institute , in Copenhagen (DK) -[ Planck Page ]
