Design of microstrip-line coupled kinetic inductance detectors for near infrared astronomy
Shiling Yu, Shibo Shu, Ran Duan +2
Kinetic inductance detectors (KID) have great potential in astronomical observation, such as searching for exoplanets, because of their low noise, fast response and photon counting…
A multi-chroic kinetic inductance detectors array using hierarchical phased array antenna
Shibo Shu, Andrew Beyer, Peter K. Day +3
We present a multi-chroic kinetic inductance detector (KID) pixel design integrated with a broadband hierarchical phased-array antenna. Each low-frequency pixel consists of four hi…
A kinetic inductance detectors array design for high background conditions at 150 GHz
Shibo Shu, Jack Sayers, Peter K. Day
We present a design for an array of kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) integrated with phased array antennas for imaging at 150 GHz under high background conditions. The microstri…
Probing the role of magnetic fields in star-forming filaments: NIKA2-Pol commissioning results toward OMC-1
H. Ajeddig, R. Adam, P. Ade +43
Dust polarization observations are a powerful, practical tool to probe the geometry (and to some extent, the strength) of magnetic fields in star-forming regions. In particular, Pl…
Understanding and minimizing resonance frequency deviations on a 4-inch kilo-pixel kinetic inductance detector array
S. Shu, M. Calvo, J. Goupy +5
One of the advantages of kinetic inductance detectors is their intrinsic frequency domain multiplexing capability. However, fabrication imperfections usually give rise to resonance…
Nonlinearity and wideband parametric amplification in an NbTiN microstrip transmission line
Shibo Shu, Nikita Klimovich, Byeong Ho Eom +4
The nonlinear response associated with the current dependence of the superconducting kinetic inductance was studied in capacitively shunted NbTiN microstrip transmission lines. It…
Observing with NIKA2Pol from the IRAM 30m telescope. Early results on the commissioning phase
A. Ritacco, R. Adam, P. Ade +41
The NIKA2 polarization channel at 260 GHz (1.15 mm) has been proposed primarily to observe galactic star-forming regions and probe the critical scales between 0.01-0.05 pc at which…
NIKA2 mapping and cross-instrument SED extraction of extended sources with Scanamorphos
H. Roussel, N. Ponthieu, R. Adam +38
The steps taken to tailor to NIKA2 observations the Scanamorphos algorithm (initially developed to subtract low-frequency noise from Herschel on-the-fly observations) are described…
Optical Response of Lumped-Element Kinetic-Inductance Detector Arrays
Shibo Shu, Martino Calvo, Johannes Goupy +5
We present an analysis of the optical response of lumped-element kinetic-inductance detector arrays, based on the NIKA2 1mm array. This array has a dual-polarization sensitive Hilb…
Status of the technologies for the production of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) mirrors
G. Pareschi, T. Armstrong, H. Baba +54
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the next generation very high-energy gamma-ray observatory, with at least 10 times higher sensitivity than current instruments. CTA will comp…
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Large Size Telescope
G. Ambrosi, Y. Awane, H. Baba +129
The two arrays of the Very High Energy gamma-ray observatory Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will include four Large Size Telescopes (LSTs) each with a 23 m diameter dish and 28 m…
