Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Wide Field Instrument: Grism Saturation Response to Bright Sources during Thermal-Vacuum Testing
Lipika Chatur, Dana R. Louie, Joshua E. Schlieder +3
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope launched on August 30th, 2026 and is expected to begin its science mission in 2027. Although Roman's core science will focus primarily on fain…
The Accretion Explorer Interferometer (AEI) Phase I NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts Final Report
Kimberly A. Weaver, Jenna M. Cann, Kenneth Carpenter +30
We must create superb X-ray images to understand the detailed physical processes behind some of the most powerful astronomical objects. The need to achieve this capability has been…
Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Wide Field Instrument: Bright Point Source Saturation Response and Persistence Properties from Thermal-Vacuum Testing
Dana R. Louie, Robert F. Wilson, Thomas Barclay +19
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope's Wide Field Instrument (WFI) will observe hundreds of thousands of bright stars across its Core Community Surveys, particularly in the dense…
NIRCam Performance on JWST In Flight
Marcia J. Rieke, Douglas M. Kelly, Karl Misselt +7
The Near Infrared Camera for the James Webb Space Telescope is delivering the imagery that astronomers have hoped for ever since JWST was proposed back in the 1990s. In the Commiss…
The Science Performance of JWST as Characterized in Commissioning
Jane Rigby, Marshall Perrin, Michael McElwain +623
This paper characterizes the actual science performance of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), as determined from the six month commissioning period. We summarize the performanc…
Simple, compact, high-resolution monochromatic x-ray source for characterization of x-ray calorimeter arrays
M. A. Leutenegger, M. E. Eckart, S. J. Moseley +6
X-ray calorimeters routinely achieve very high spectral resolution, typically a few eV full width at half maximum (FWHM). Measurements of calorimeter line shapes are usually domina…
Ray-tracing for coordinate knowledge in the JWST Integrated Science Instrument Module
Derek Sabatke, Joseph Sullivan, Scott Rohrbach +1
Optical alignment and testing of the Integrated Science Instrument Module of the James Webb Space Telescope is underway. We describe the Optical Telescope Element Simulator used to…
