Efficiencies of KOSMA telescope (Historical records before 2008 are from the old Germany KOSMA web site: see link here and here) KOSMA beam efficiencies and half power beamwidths between 220 and 810 GHz as of winter 2003/2004
KOSMA beam efficiencies and half power beamwidths between 220 and 810 GHz after photogrametric measurement
Comparison of W3
IRS5 CO_7-6 line in Wintersession 2001/2002 to 2002/2003. Current KOSMA beam efficiencies and half power beamwidths between 220 and 810 GHz (As of 2002)
The forward efficiency Feff is about 90%. Tmb = Feff/Beff
TA*.
