Simulations of the Spectral Resolving Power of a Compact Space-Borne Immersion-Echelle Spectrometer Using Mid-Infrared Wave Tracing
Satoshi Itoh, Daisuke Ishihara, Takehiko Wada +5
We performed wave-optics-based numerical simulations at mid-infrared wavelengths to investigate how the presence or absence of entrance slits and optical aberrations affect the spe…
Pixel-based spectral characterization of mid-infrared Si array detectors for astronomical observations in space
Takuro Tsuchikawa, Hidehiro Kaneda, Daisuke Ishihara +2
Mid-infrared (IR) array detectors have been used for astronomical observations in space. However, the uniformities of their spectral response curves have not been investigated in d…
SPICA - a large cryogenic infrared space telescope Unveiling the obscured Universe
P. R. Roelfsema, H. Shibai, L. Armus +66
Measurements in the infrared wavelength domain allow us to assess directly the physical state and energy balance of cool matter in space, thus enabling the detailed study of the va…
Coronagraphic demonstration experiment using aluminum mirrors for space infrared astronomical observations
Shinji Oseki, Shinki Oyabu, Daisuke Ishihara +7
For future space infrared astronomical coronagraphy, we perform experimental studies on the application of aluminum mirrors to a coronagraph. Cooled reflective optics is required f…
Slow-scan Observations with the Infrared Camera (IRC) on-board AKARI
Satoshi Takita, Norio Ikeda, Yoshimi Kitamura +6
We present the characterization and calibration of the slow-scan observation mode of the Infrared Camera (IRC) on-board AKARI. The IRC slow-scan observations were operated at the S…
AKARI-CAS --- Online Service for AKARI All-Sky Catalogues
C. Yamauchi, S. Fujishima, N. Ikeda +8
The AKARI All-Sky Catalogues are an important infrared astronomical database for next-generation astronomy that take over the IRAS catalog. We have developed an online service, AKA…
