Calibrator Design for the COBE Far Infrared Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS)
J. C. Mather, D. J. Fixsen, R. A. Shafer +2
The photometric errors of the external calibrator for the FIRAS instrument on the COBE are smaller than the measurement errors on the cosmic microwave background (CMBR) spectrum (t…
COBE-FIRAS Observations of Galactic Lines
D. J. Fixsen, C. L. Bennett, J. C. Mather
The COBE Far InfraRed Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS) observations constitute an unbiased survey over the wavelength range from 100 um to 1 cm over 99% of the sky. Improved cali…
Cosmic Ray Rejection and Image Processing Aboard The Next Generation Space Telescope
H. S. Stockman, D. Fixsen, R. Hanisch +5
The NASA Yardstick design for the Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM) utilizes 64 1k x 1k InSb imagers. Since multiple readouts per image are required to remove cosmic ray…
The COBE Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment Search for the Cosmic Infrared Background: IV. Cosmological Implications
E. Dwek, R. G. Arendt, M. G. Hauser +11
In this paper we examine the cosmological constraints of the recent DIRBE and FIRAS detection of the extragalactic background light between 125-5000 microns on the metal and star f…
