‘modal-noise’ in Single-mode Fibers: a Cautionary Note for High Precision Radial Velocity Instruments
Exploring the use of single-mode fibers (SMFs) in high precision Doppler spectrometers has become increasingly attractive since the advent of diffraction-limited adaptive optics systems on largeaperture telescopes. Spectrometers fed with these fibers can be made significantly smaller than typical ‘seeing-limited’ instruments, greatly reducing cost and overall complexity. Importantly, classical ...
متن کاملWFPC2 Calibration for Emission Line Images
Formulae for the flux calibration of WFPC2 emission lines are presented. The photometric information given in the header is not adequate, and does not consider the contamination due to neighbouring emission lines in the filter passband or by the continuum. The formulae were originally calibrated using groundbased images of the Orion Nebula. The photometric accuracy of the flux calibration proce...
متن کاملA Radial Velocity Survey for LMC Microlensed Sources
We propose a radial velocity survey with the aim to resolve the current dispute on the LMC lensing: in the pro-macho hypothesis the lenses are halo white dwarfs or machos in general; in the pro-star hypothesis both the lenses and the sources are stars in various observed or hypothesized structures of the Magellanic Clouds and the Galaxy. Star-star lensing should prefer sources at the backside o...
متن کاملA Goldilocks principle for modelling radial velocity noise
The Doppler measurements of stars are diluted and distorted by stellar activity noise. Different choices of noise models and statistical methods have led to much controversy in the confirmation of exoplanet candidates obtained through analysing radial velocity data. To quantify the limitation of various models and methods, we compare different noise models and signal detection criteria for vari...
