Design for the COBE1 Far Infrared Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS)
The Far InfraRed Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS) was built to measure the spectrum of diiuse emission from 1 to 100 cm ?1 , with particular attention to possible diierences between the spectrum of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) and a blackbody spectrum as small as 0.1% of the peak of the CMBR spectrum. The FIRAS has diierential inputs and outputs, a full beam external calib...
متن کاملO ct 1 99 8 Calibrator Design for the COBE 1 Far Infrared Absolute Spectrophotometer ( FIRAS )
(NASA/GSFC) was responsible for the design, development, and operation of the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE). GSFC was also responsible for the development of the analysis software and for the production of the mission data sets. The COBE program was supported by the Astrophysics Division of NASA's Office of Space Science and Applications. ABSTRACT The photometric errors of the external cali...
متن کاملThe Far Infrared And
We have repeated our earlier observations of the Infrared and submllllmeter background radiation. While the measured values of the infrared background radiation remain unchanged, we have failed to observe the high flux previously reported for the 0.4 to 1.3 mm range. This indicates that the flux cannot have been galactic or cosmic, but further observations are needed to rule out a solar cycle d...
متن کاملCalibration of the Far Infrared
The FIRAS instrument on the COBE satellite was designed to accurately measure the spectrum of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) in the frequency range 1 to 95 cm ?1 with an angular resolution of 7. We describe the calibration of this instrument, including the method of obtaining calibration data, reduction of data, the instrument model, tting the model to the calibration data, an...
متن کاملFar-infrared and sub-mm observations of the Crab nebula
We present far-infrared (FIR) and sub-mm images of the Crab nebula, taken with the ISOPHOT instrument on board the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) and with the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. The ISOPHOT observations were made in the bands centred at 60, 100, 170 μm, with FWHM of equivalent area Gaussian beams of 44, 47 and 93 arcsec, res...
