M. A. Tarasov

M. A. Tarasov works on superconducting detector and receiver technology for radio astronomy, particularly devices using superconductor-insulator-normal metal-insulator-superconductor (SINIS) tunnel junctions to detect faint radio and terahertz signals from space. This research combines cryogenic engineering (systems that operate near absolute zero), antenna and receiver design, and fundamental studies of electron transport in superconducting nanostructures, with applications to telescopes such as the BTA optical telescope adapted for subterahertz observations. The work spans device fabrication, quantum circuit design, and instrumentation for astronomical observatories.

Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade but shows an overall increase, peaking at 17 papers in 2024 after periods of lower output such as 2 in 2017 and 2019.
