Mathias Fredrixon

Senior Research Engineer at Onsala Space Observatory

Mathias is involved in the development of receivers for radio astronomy mainly for the telescopes at Onsala, the ALMA telescope and the APEX telescope.

In the GARD group, Mathias is responsible for the development of CAD models, drawings and contacts with mechanical workshops.

Mathias first assignment at Chalmers was development and tests for the Space Telescope ODIN that was launched 2001.

The work at GARD involves everything from programming, measurements in the lab and installing receivers at 5100 meters over sea level in the Chilean mountains in South America.
