The Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER): The Wide-Field Imagers
J. Bock, I. Sullivan, T. Arai +19
We have developed and characterized an imaging instrument to measure the spatial properties of the diffuse near-infrared extragalactic background light in a search for fluctuations…
The Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER): A Sounding Rocket Payload to Study the Near Infrared Extragalactic Background Light
M. Zemcov, T. Arai, J. Battle +16
The Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER) is a suite of four instruments designed to study the near infrared (IR) background light from above the Earth's atmosphere. The in…
The Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER): the Narrow Band Spectrometer
P. M. Korngut, T. Renbarger, T. Arai +21
We have developed a near-infrared spectrometer designed to measure the absolute intensity of the Solar 854.2 nm CaII Fraunhofer line, scattered by interplanetary dust, in the Zodia…
The Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER): The Low Resolution Spectrometer
K. Tsumura, T. Arai, J. Battle +20
Absolute spectrophotometric measurements of diffuse radiation at 1 μm to 2 μm are crucial to our understanding of the radiative content of the Universe from nucleosynthesis since…
Observations of the Near-Infrared Spectrum of the Zodiacal Light with CIBER
K. Tsumura, J. Battle, J. Bock +14
Interplanetary dust (IPD) scatters solar radiation which results in the zodiacal light that dominates the celestial diffuse brightness at optical and near-infrared wavelengths. Bot…
