Expanded Maser Science Opportunities with the ALMA Wideband Sensitivity Upgrade
Crystal L. Brogan
Abstract:The ALMA Project is embarking on a partner-wide initiative to at least double, and ultimately quadruple the correlated bandwidth of ALMA by @2030. This initiative is called the ALMA Wideband Sensitivity Upgrade (WSU). In this contribution, I briefly describe the main aspects of the upgrade and status. Then I provide several examples of how the WSU will enhance (sub)millimeter maser science by affording the ability to observe more diagnostic maser transitions (and thermal lines) with a single observation.
