CCAT: Design and Characterization of the 350 GHz Instrument Module
Ben Keller, Jordan Wheeler, Cody J. Duell +24
The CCAT Collaboration's Prime-Cam instrument will soon be deployed to the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST) in Chile's Atacama Desert. Featuring prominently in Prime-Cam's…
CCAT: Characterization of the first science-grade MKID array for the Prime-Cam 850 GHz module
Anthony I. Huber, Jordan Wheeler, James Burgoyne +16
The Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST) is a 6-meter crossed-Dragone telescope developed by the CCAT collaboration. Sited at 5600 m on Cerro Chajnantor in the Atacama Plateau…
CCAT: The 410 GHz camera module for FYST - design and testing of the MKID focal plane
Scott C. Chapman, Jordan Wheeler, Anthony Huber +17
Prime-Cam, the primary first-light instrument for the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST) developed by the Cerro Chajnantor Atacama Telescope (CCAT) Collaboration, will accom…
CCAT: Silicon-Platelet Feedhorns for Submillimeter Wavelengths
Jason Austermann, James Beall, James R. Burgoyne +12
Silicon-platelet feedhorn arrays are an established technology at millimeter wavelengths that, for some applications, can provide significant advantages over traditional direct-mac…
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…
Development of Silicon Micromachined Waveguide Filter-Banks for On-Chip Spectrometers
Matthew A. Koc, Jason Austermann, James Beall +4
Development of high-speed, spatial-mapping spectrometers in the millimeter and far-infrared frequencies would enable entirely new research avenues in astronomy and cosmology. An "o…
