The Frequency Agile Solar Radiotelescope (FASR) is an ultra-wideband radio array that
will operate over a frequency range of 50 MHz to more than 20 GHz, or wavelengths
of <1.5 cm to 6 m. The proposed site is the
Owens Valley Radio Observatory in California.
FASR will image radio emission from the middle-chromosphere
to the outer corona in three dimensions once every second, providing unique measurements
of coronal magnetic fields, solar flares, and drivers of space weather.
