Cryogenic telescope on the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS)
R. H. White Jet Propulsion Laboratory California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 91109 Abstract. The Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS)* has completed an unbiased all -sky survey at wavelengths from 10 to 100 μm. The design and performance of the focal plane array is described with emphasis on in -orbit measurements of the sensitivity and stability. In the four broad spectral b...
متن کاملFirst scientific results from the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS)
The Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) was successfully launched on 25 January 1983 and terminated science data acquisition on 22 November 1983. The in -orbit performance of the telescope has been described in two previous papers in these proceedings.1'2 A previous description of very preliminary scientific results from the mission has been given in these proceedings3, while far more extens...
متن کاملContamination Control of the SABER Cryogenic Infrared Telescope
The SABER instrument (Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Spectroscopy) is a cryogenic infrared sensor on the TIMED spacecraft with stringent molecular and particulate contamination control requirements. The sensor measures infrared emissions from atmospheric constituents in the earth limb at altitudes ranging from 60 to 180 km using radiatively-cooled 240 K optics and a mechani...

متن کاملThe space cryogenic submillimeter telescope based on hot
Extremely sensitive detectors are necessary for deep full-sky survey of distant extragalactic sources in the submillimeter-wave region by the cryogenically cooled telescope at the International Space Station (project Submillimetron). Detection of faint sources needs wide-band continuum observation using direct detectors (bolometers) not restricted by the quantum noise of indirect heterodyne rec...
