A New Galactic Extinction Map in High Ecliptic Latitudes

Tsunehito Kohyama, Hiroshi Shibai, Misato Fukagawa +2

In this study, we derived a galactic extinction map in high ecliptic latitudes for |β| > 30 degrees. The dust temperature distribution was derived from the intensities at 100 and 1…

The Far-Infrared Surveyor (FIS) for AKARI

Mitsunobu Kawada, Hajime Baba, Peter D. Barthel +57

The Far-Infrared Surveyor (FIS) is one of two focal plane instruments on the AKARI satellite. FIS has four photometric bands at 65, 90, 140, and 160 um, and uses two kinds of array…

Far-infrared dust properties in the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds

Hiroyuki Hirashita, Yasunori Hibi, Hiroshi Shibai

A recent data analysis of the far-infrared (FIR) map of the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds has shown that there is a tight correlation between two FIR colours: the 60 um-100 um a…

Common Correlations between 60, 100 and 140 um Intensities in the Galactic Plane and Magellanic Clouds

Yasunori Hibi, Hiroshi Shibai, Mitsunobu Kawada +2

We investigate the far-infrared SED of the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds by using the COBE (COsmic Background Explorer) / DIRBE (Diffuse InfraRed Background Experiment) ZSMA (Zo…

Cryogenic Capacitive Transimpedance Amplifier for Astronomical Infrared Detectors

Hirohisa Nagata, Hiroshi Shibai, Takanori Hirao +5

We have developed a new capacitive transimpedance amplifier (CTIA) that can be operated at 2 K, and have good performance as readout circuits of astronomical far-infrared array det…
