摘要
The Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA(1)), which began early science observations in October 2011, is an array of 66 antennas designed to study the universe at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths. Critical to the quality of the science derived from ALMA is the calibration of its measurements. In the following I describe how the ALMA telescope is calibrated.
