An Open Source RFSoC-based Readout Electronics System for Arrays of Kinetic Inductance Detectors and Superconducting Resonators
Cody Roberson, Nia McNichols, Jack Sayers +12
We present a novel readout electronics system for large arrays of superconducting electromagnetic resonators, such as kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs), based on a Radio Frequenc…
KID Detector Readout Electronics Development for Habitable Worlds Observatory
Sean Bryan, Hugh Barnaby, Oketa Basha +15
We present the status and goals of the readout electronics system we are developing to support the detector arrays in the coronagraph instrument on the NASA Habitable Worlds Observ…
CubeSounder: Low SWaP-C 180 GHz Radiometer for Atmospheric Sensing Tested on High Altitude Balloons
Kyle D. Massingill, Tyler M. Karasinski, Sean Bryan +13
Microwave sounding is the leading driver of global numerical weather forecasting, but is limited by the scalability of such instruments. With modern machining and commercial microw…
Forecasting the cross correlation of Terahertz Intensity Mapper [CII] line intensity maps with Euclid galaxies
Justin S. Bracks, Ryan P. Keenan, Shubh Agrawal +24
We forecast that the Terahertz Intensity Mapper (TIM) cross-correlated with Euclid's Fornax deep field (EDF-F), TIMEDF-F, will detect the [CII]-galaxy cross-power spectrum…
Spaceflight KID Readout Electronics for PRIMA
Thomas Essinger-Hileman, C. Matt Bradford, Patrick Brown +23
We present the design and testing of a prototype multiplexing kinetic inductance detector (KID) readout electronics for the PRobe far-Infrared Mission for Astrophysics (PRIMA) spac…
Readout of Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector (MKID) Arrays for Habitable Worlds Observatory Using a Polyphase Filterbank Algorithm
Oketa Basha, Tracee Lynn Jamison-Hooks, Philip Mauskopf +12
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO), a nextgeneration ultraviolet/optical/infrared space telescope, will require detector technologies capable of supporting substantially larger…
