The Sunyaev–Zel'dovich Array (SZA) is a radio interferometer designed primarily for the study of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect, which entails the distortion of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation caused by its interaction with hot gas in galaxy clusters. This effect can provide valuable information about the clusters, including their mass, distance, and the distribution of dark matter.
