TIME Commissioning Observations: I. Mapping Dust and Molecular Gas in the Sgr A Molecular Cloud Complex at the Galactic Center
Selina F. Yang, Sophie M. McAtee, Benjamin J. Vaughan +24
We present the processing of an observation of Sagittarius A (Sgr A) with the Tomographic Ionized-carbon Mapping Experiment (TIME), part of the 2021-2022 commissioning run to verif…
Development of a planar cable-driven parallel robot for submillimeter and terahertz beam mapping measurements
Evan C. Mayer, Ian N. Lowe, Daniel P. Marrone +20
The spatial sensitivity pattern of millimeter-wavelength receivers is an important diagnostic of performance and is affected by the alignment of coupling optics. Characterization c…
TES Bolometer Design and Testing for the Tomographic Ionized-carbon Mapping Experiment Millimeter Array
Victoria L. Butler, James J. Bock, Dongwoo T. Chung +7
Transition Edge Sensor (TES) bolometers are a well-established technology with a strong track record in experimental cosmology, making them ideal for current and future radio astro…
CCAT: Optical Responsivity, Noise, and Readout Optimization of KIDs for Prime-Cam
Eliza Gazda, Quintin Meyers, Steve K. Choi +18
The Prime-Cam instrument on the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST) at the CCAT Observatory will conduct sensitive millimeter to submillimeter surveys for a range of astrophy…
Measuring the Temperature of Extremely Hot Shock-Heated Gas in the Major Merger MACS J0717.5+3745 With Relativistic Corrections to the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect
Benjamin J. Vaughan, Jack Sayers, Locke Spencer +10
The conversion of gravitational potential to kinetic energy results in an intracluster medium (ICM) gas with a characteristic temperature near 10 keV in the most massive galaxy clu…
CCAT: Design, Implementation, and Testing of a System to Read Out over 10,000 280 GHz KIDs using RFSoC Electronics
Darshan A. Patel, Yuhan Wang, Cody J. Duell +27
Over the past decade, kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) have emerged as a viable superconducting technology for astrophysics at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths. KIDs spa…
CCAT: Magnetic Sensitivity Measurements of Kinetic Inductance Detectors
Benjamin J. Vaughan, Yuhan Wang, Cody J. Duell +16
The CCAT Observatory is a ground-based submillimeter to millimeter experiment located on Cerro Chajnantor in the Atacama Desert, at an altitude of 5,600 meters. CCAT features the 6…
CCAT: Mod-Cam Cryogenic Performance and its Impact on 280 GHz KID Array Noise
Lawrence T. Lin, Eve M. Vavagiakis, Jason E. Austermann +27
The CCAT Observatory's Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST) is designed to observe submillimeter astronomical signals with high precision, using receivers fielding state-of-th…
