The MKID Science Data Pipeline
Sarah Steiger, John I. Bailey, Nicholas Zobrist +4
We present The MKID Pipeline, a general use science data pipeline for the reduction and analysis of ultraviolet, optical and infrared (UVOIR) Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector…
The MKID Exoplanet Camera for Subaru SCExAO
Alexander B. Walter, Neelay Fruitwala, Sarah Steiger +21
We present the MKID Exoplanet Camera (MEC), a z through J band (800 - 1400 nm) integral field spectrograph located behind The Subaru Coronagraphic Extreme Adaptive Optics (SCExAO)…
First Principle Simulator of a Stochastically Varying Image Plane for Photon-Counting High Contrast Applications
R. H. Dodkins, K. Davis, B. Lewis +6
Optical and near-infrared Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors, or MKIDs, are low-temperature detectors with inherent spectral resolution that are able to instantly register indi…
Complex beam mapping and Fourier optics analysis of a wide field Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector camera
S. J. C. Yates, K. K. Davis, W. Jellema +2
For astronomical instruments, accurate knowledge of the optical pointing and coupling are essential to characterize the alignment and performance of (sub-)systems prior to integrat…
Analysis techniques for complex-field radiation pattern measurements
Kristina K. Davis, Willem Jellema, Stephen J. C. Yates +3
Complex field measurements are increasingly becoming the standard for state-of-the-art astronomical instrumentation. Complex field measurements have been used to characterize a sui…
Surface wave control for large arrays of microwave kinetic inductance detectors
Stephen J. C. Yates, Andrey M. Baryshev, Ozan Yurduseven +8
Large ultra-sensitive detector arrays are needed for present and future observatories for far infra-red, submillimeter wave (THz), and millimeter wave astronomy. With increasing ar…
Instrumental performance and results from testing of the BLAST-TNG receiver, submillimeter optics, and MKID arrays
Nicholas Galitzki, Peter Ade, Francesco E. Angile +39
Polarized thermal emission from interstellar dust grains can be used to map magnetic fields in star forming molecular clouds and the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM). The Balloon-…
