The SPHEREx Instrument: Calibration, testing and performance measurements of the NIR spectroscopic surveyor from the laboratory to in-orbit commissioning

Phil M. Korngut, James J. Bock, Samuel Condon +90

The SPHEREx near-infrared space telescope is an all-sky spectroscopic survey mission launched on March 12th, 2025 UTC. In addition to providing the community with a spectral databa…

SPHEREx Wide-Field Infrared Spectral Mapping of Interstellar Ices and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons

Joseph L. Hora, Jinyoung K. Noh, Gary J. Melnick +32

We present some of the first infrared spectral maps acquired by SPHEREx. These maps, which to our knowledge are the largest of their type ever compiled in the near-infrared, reveal…

Weighted Stacking of Radio Images Affected by Noise and Interfering Signals

Giulia Murgia, Sofia Fatigoni

We implement an algorithm based on the weighted stacking of astronomical images that can combine different observations of the same region of the sky removing the interfering signa…
