Optimizing Charge-coupled Device Readout Enabled by the Floating-Gate Amplifier
Kenneth W. Lin, Abby Bault, Armin Karcher +4
Multiple-Amplifier Sensing (MAS) charge-coupled devices (CCDs) have recently been shown to be promising silicon detectors that meet noise sensitivity requirements for next generati…
The La Silla Schmidt Southern Survey
Adam A. Miller, Natasha S. Abrams, Greg Aldering +75
We present the La Silla Schmidt Southern Survey (LS4), a new wide-field, time-domain survey to be conducted with the 1 m ESO Schmidt telescope. The 268 megapixel LS4 camera mosaics…
The Spectroscopic Stage-5 Experiment
Robert Besuner, Arjun Dey, Alex Drlica-Wagner +106
The existence, properties, and dynamics of the dark sectors of our universe pose fundamental challenges to our current model of physics, and large-scale astronomical surveys may be…
Readout Optimization of Multi-Amplifier Sensing Charge-Coupled Devices for Single-Quantum Measurement
Ana M. Botti, Brenda A. Cervantes-Vergara, Claudio R. Chavez +15
The non-destructive readout capability of the Skipper Charge Coupled Device (CCD) has been demonstrated to reduce the noise limitation of conventional silicon devices to levels tha…
Multi-Amplifier Sensing Charge-coupled Devices for Next Generation Spectroscopy
Kenneth W. Lin, Armin Karcher, Julien Guy +6
We present characterization results and performance of a prototype Multiple-Amplifier Sensing (MAS) silicon charge-coupled device (CCD) sensor with 16 channels potentially suitable…
