Description

QUIJOTE (Q-U-I JOint TEnerife) is a pair of 2.25m telescopes observing from Teide Observatory, Tenerife, at 10-20GHz (Multi-Frequency Instrument, MFI) and 30 and 40GHz (Thirty and Forty Gigahertz Instrument, TFGI). The wide survey of MFI1 has recently been released, while TFGI and MFI2 observations continue, and a 90GHz camera is under development for the future.

I will summarise the current data release of MFI and the key results obtained with it so far, in particular the wide survey of our Galaxy and studies of various Galactic regions. I will also briefly describe ongoing and upcoming observational experiments at Tenerife, including GroundBIRD, LSPE-STRIP, and TMS, which combined with QUIJOTE will give observations of the northern hemisphere at degree scale throughout 10-220GHz, an unprecedented range of frequencies from a single observing site.
