We discuss the design and measured performance of a titanium nitride (TiN) mesh absorber we are developing for controlling optical crosstalk in horn-coupled lumped-element kinetic…
The NANOGrav Nine-Year Data Set: Noise Budget for Pulsar Arrival Times on Intraday Timescales
M. T. Lam, J. M. Cordes, S. Chatterjee +21
The use of pulsars as astrophysical clocks for gravitational wave experiments demands the highest possible timing precision. Pulse times of arrival (TOAs) are limited by stochastic…
A practical theorem on using interferometry to measure the global 21-cm signal
Tejaswi Venumadhav, Tzu-Ching Chang, Olivier Doré +1
The sky-averaged, or global, background of redshifted cm radiation is expected to be a rich source of information on cosmological reheating and reionizaton. However, measuring…
The Impact of Interpixel Capacitance in CMOS Detectors on PSF shapes and Implications for WFIRST
Arun Kannawadi, Charles A. Shapiro, Rachel Mandelbaum +3
Unlike optical CCDs, near-infrared detectors, which are based on CMOS hybrid readout technology, typically suffer from electrical crosstalk between the pixels. The interpixel capac…

Low Noise Titanium Nitride KIDs for SuperSpec: A Millimeter-Wave On-Chip Spectrometer
S. Hailey-Dunsheath, E. Shirokoff, P. S. Barry +17
SuperSpec is a novel on-chip spectrometer we are developing for multi-object, moderate resolution (R = 100 - 500), large bandwidth (~1.65:1) submillimeter and millimeter survey spe…
Demonstration of high contrast with an obscured aperture with the WFIRST-AFTA shaped pupil coronagraph
Eric Cady, Camilo Mejia Prada, Xin An +10
The coronagraph instrument on the WFIRST-AFTA mission study has two coronagraphic architectures, shaped pupil and hybrid Lyot, which may be interchanged for use in different observ…
Optical characterization of gaps in directly bonded Si compound optics using infrared spectroscopy
Michael Gully-Santiago, Daniel T. Jaffe, Victor White
Silicon direct bonding offers flexibility in the design and development of Si optics by allowing manufacturers to combine subcomponents with a potentially lossless and mechanically…
Are we there yet? Time to detection of nanohertz gravitational waves based on pulsar-timing array limits
S. R. Taylor, M. Vallisneri, J. A. Ellis +3
Decade-long timing observations of arrays of millisecond pulsars have placed highly constraining upper limits on the amplitude of the nanohertz gravitational-wave stochastic signal…
X-Ray Polarimetry with the Polarization Spectroscopic Telescope Array (PolSTAR)
Henric S. Krawczynski, Daniel Stern, Fiona A. Harrison +49
This paper describes the Polarization Spectroscopic Telescope Array (PolSTAR), a mission proposed to NASA's 2014 Small Explorer (SMEX) announcement of opportunity. PolSTAR measures…
The Hera Saturn Entry Probe Mission
O. Mousis, D. H. Atkinson, T. Spilker +41
The Hera Saturn entry probe mission is proposed as an M--class mission led by ESA with a contribution from NASA. It consists of one atmospheric probe to be sent into the atmosphere…
Spatial and Temporal Stability of Airglow Measured in the Meinel Band Window at 1191.3 nm
Hien T. Nguyen, Michael Zemcov, John Battle +4
We report on the temporal and spatial fluctuations in the atmospheric brightness in the narrow band between Meinel emission lines at 1191.3 nm using an R=320 near-infrared instrume…
Giant Planet Observations with the James Webb Space Telescope
James Norwood, Julianne Moses, Leigh N. Fletcher +8
This white paper examines the benefit of the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope for studies of the Solar System's four giant planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. JWST's…
Attaining Doppler Precision of 10 cm/s with a Lock-In Amplified Spectrometer
Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Philip S. Muirhead, Michael Bottom +3
We explore the radial velocity performance benefits of coupling starlight to a fast-scanning interferometer and a fast-readout spectrometer with zero readout noise. By rapidly scan…
Arm-Locking with the GRACE Follow-On Laser Ranging Interferometer
James Ira Thorpe, Kirk McKenzie
Arm-locking is a technique for stabilizing the frequency of a laser in an inter-spacecraft interferometer by using the spacecraft separation as the frequency reference. A candidate…
The noise properties of 42 millisecond pulsars from the European Pulsar Timing Array and their impact on gravitational wave searches
R. N. Caballero, K. J. Lee, L. Lentati +36
The sensitivity of Pulsar Timing Arrays to gravitational waves depends on the noise present in the individual pulsar timing data. Noise may be either intrinsic or extrinsic to the…
Photon noise from chaotic and coherent millimeter-wave sources measured with horn-coupled, aluminum lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors
