Abstract
A new design for superconductor-based mixers has the potential to more than double their intermediate frequency bandwidth. Presented by researchers in Oxford and Cologne, this will enable the creation of more sensitive astronomical instruments to observe phenomena from the birth of stars to the birth of the universe itself.
