The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Passband Measurements with an Analysis of Systematic Errors
Thomas Alford, Rahul Datta, Erminia Calabrese +14
We present measurements of the spectral response of the four Advanced ACTPol (AdvACT) multichroic detector arrays, which observed in frequency bands centered near 30, 40, 90, 150,…
CCAT: a two-octave 1.024 GHz KID readout featuring an overlap-channel polyphase synthesis filter bank on RFSoC
Ruixuan, Xie, Adrian K. Sinclair +7
Next-generation submillimeter instruments require gigahertz-scale readout bandwidths to support the growing detector counts of large microwave kinetic inductance detector (KID) arr…
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: 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: Optical Design of the 410 GHz Prime-Cam Module
Tilak M. Patel, Tanner Buck, Anthony Huber +7
Prime-Cam is a first-generation instrument for the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST), enabling wide-field, multi-frequency observations for cosmology, line-intensity mappin…
CCAT: Optical Responsivity, Noise, and Readout Optimization of KIDs for Prime-Cam
Eliza Gazda, Quintin Meyers, James R. Burgoyne +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…
