The ARGO program consists of a balloon-borne mm and sub-mm telescope, devoted to the observation of diffuse radiation in the wavelenth range between 2 mm and 300 μm, at angular scales between 10′ and 5°. We review here the impact of such observations in different fields ranging from Atmospheric Physics to Cosmology. We also quote the results obtained from ARGO's first flight in 1989, and we describe the improved version of ARGO we are currently developing.

Abstract
The ARGO program consists of a balloon-borne mm and sub-mm telescope, devoted to the observation of diffuse radiation in the wavelenth range between 2 mm and 300 μm, at angular scales between 10′ and 5°. We review here the impact of such observations in different fields ranging from Atmospheric Physics to Cosmology. We also quote the results obtained from ARGO's first flight in 1989, and we describe the improved version of ARGO we are currently developing.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
