The James Webb Space Telescope Mission
Jonathan P. Gardner, John C. Mather, Randy Abbott +1004
Twenty-six years ago a small committee report, building on earlier studies, expounded a compelling and poetic vision for the future of astronomy, calling for an infrared-optimized…
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…
Great Observatories: The Past and Future of Panchromatic Astrophysics
L. Armus, S. T. Megeath, L. Corrales +30
NASA's Great Observatories have opened up the electromagnetic spectrum from space, providing sustained access to wavelengths not accessible from the ground. Together, Hubble, Compt…
Astro2020: Astrophotonics White Paper
Pradip Gatkine, Sylvain Veilleux, John Mather +19
Astrophotonics is the application of versatile photonic technologies to channel, manipulate, and disperse guided light from one or more telescopes to achieve scientific objectives…
SOFIA - HIRMES: Looking forward to the HIgh-Resolution Mid-infrarEd Spectrometer
Samuel N. Richards, Samuel H. Moseley, Gordon Stacey +48
The HIgh-Resolution Mid-infrarEd Spectrometer (HIRMES) is the 3rd Generation Instrument for the Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA), currently in development a…
Improved Reference Sampling and Subtraction: A Technique for Reducing the Read Noise of Near-infrared Detector Systems
Bernard J. Rauscher, Richard G. Arendt, D. J. Fixsen +9
Near-infrared array detectors, like the \JWST NIRSpec's Teledyne's H2RGs, often provide reference pixels and a reference output. These are used to remove correlated noise. Improved…
