Performance of the Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer with Photoconductive Detector Arrays: An Application for the AKARI Far-Infrared Instrument
Mitsunobu Kawada, Hidenori Takahashi, Noriko Murakami +10
We have developed an imaging Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) for space-based far-infrared astronomical observations. The FTS employs a newly developed photoconductive detector…
Systematic infrared 2.5-5 micron spectroscopy of nearby ultraluminous infrared galaxies with AKARI
Masatoshi Imanishi, Takao Nakagawa, Yoichi Ohyama +4
We report on the results of systematic infrared 2.5-5 micron spectroscopy of 45 nearby ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) at z < 0.3 using IRC onboard the AKARI satellite. Th…
Timeline analysis and wavelet multiscale analysis of the AKARI All-Sky Survey at 90 micron
Lingyu Wang, Michael Rowan-Robinson, Issei Yamamura +17
We present a careful analysis of the point source detection limit of the AKARI All-Sky Survey in the WIDE-S 90 m band near the North Ecliptic Pole (NEP). Timeline Analysis is us…
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…
The Infrared Astronomical Mission AKARI
H. Murakami, H. Baba, P. Barthel +90
AKARI, the first Japanese satellite dedicated to infrared astronomy, was launched on 2006 February 21, and started observations in May of the same year. AKARI has a 68.5 cm cooled…
The Far-Infrared Properties of Spatially Resolved AKARI Observations
Woong-Seob Jeong, Takao Nakagawa, Issei Yamamura +29
We present the spatially resolved observations of IRAS sources from the Japanese infrared astronomy satellite AKARI All-Sky Survey during the performance verification (PV) phase of…
AKARI Far-Infrared Source Counts in the Lockman Hole
Shuji Matsuura, Mai Shirahata, Mitsunobu Kawada +8
We report initial results of far-infrared observations of the Lockman hole with Far-Infrared Surveyor (FIS) onboard the AKARI infrared satellite. On the basis of slow scan observat…
Far-infrared distributions in nearby spiral galaxies NGC2841 and NGC2976 observed with AKARI/FIS
H. Kaneda, T. Suzuki, T. Onaka +9
Far-infrared (IR) images of the nearby Sb galaxy NGC2841 and the Sc galaxy NGC2976 at wavelengths of 65, 90, 140, and 160 um have been obtained with the Far-Infrared Surveyor (FIS)…
Detection of CFIRB with AKARI/FIS Deep Observations
Woong-Seob Jeong, Chris P. Pearson, Hyung Mok Lee +8
The Cosmic Far-Infrared Background (CFIRB) contains information about the number and distribution of contributing sources and thus gives us an important key to understand the evolu…
Galaxy Colours in the AKARI Deep SEP Survey
Chris P. Pearson, Woong-Seob Jeong, S. Matsuura +7
We investigate the segregation of the extragalactic population via colour criteria to produce an efficient and inexpensive methodology to select specific source populations as a fu…
Deep Extragalactic Surveys around the Ecliptic Poles with AKARI (ASTRO-F)
Hideo Matsuhara, Takehiko Wada, Shuji Matsuura +26
AKARI (formerly ASTRO-F) is an infrared space telescope designed for an all-sky survey at 10-180 (mu)m, and deep pointed surveys of selected areas at 2-180 (mu)m. The deep pointed…
