DESCRIPTION:AMiBA is an interferometric experiment designed to study cosmo
 logy through the observation of the anisotropy in Cosmic Microwave Backgro
 und (CMB). In 2007 it focuses on the observation of galaxy clusters via th
 e Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (S-Z) effect. Currently AMiBA operates at 86-104 GHz 
 with 7 close-packed antennas of 60 cm in diameter giving a synthesized res
 olution of 6 arcminutes. In this talk\, we will report the results of the 
 first-year observation in 2007 on several massive low-redshift (0.08 < z <
  0.33) clusters\, including their images and preliminary science results. 
 Data analysis and possible systematic effects will be also addressed. We w
 ill also discuss the prospects of the expanded AMiBA that will start opera
 ting in 2009.
