Calibration of Herschel SPIRE FTS observations at different spectral resolutions
N. Marchili, R. Hopwood, T. Fulton +11
The SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer on board the Herschel Space Observatory had two standard spectral resolution modes for science observations: high resolution (HR) and low r…
The data processing pipeline for the Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer
T. Fulton, D. A. Naylor, E. T. Polehampton +13
We present the data processing pipeline to generate calibrated data products from the Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer on th…
Systematic characterisation of the Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer
R. Hopwood, E. T. Polehampton, I. Valtchanov +17
A systematic programme of calibration observations was carried out to monitor the performance of the SPIRE FTS instrument on board the Herschel Space Observatory. Observations of p…
Calibration of the Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer
B. M. Swinyard, E. T. Polehampton, R. Hopwood +21
The Herschel SPIRE instrument consists of an imaging photometric camera and an imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS), both operating over a frequency range of 450-1550 GHz.…
Herschel SPIRE FTS Relative Spectral Response Calibration
Trevor Fulton, Rosalind Hopwood, Jean-Paul Baluteau +9
Herschel/SPIRE Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) observations contain emission from both the Herschel Telescope and the SPIRE Instrument itself, both of which are typically orde…
Herschel SPIRE FTS telescope model correction
Rosalind Hopwood, Trevor Fulton, Edward T. Polehampton +8
Emission from the Herschel telescope is the dominant source of radiation for the majority of SPIRE Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) observations, despite the exceptionally low…
Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer: Calibration of its Bright-source Mode
Nanyao Lu, Edward T. Polehampton, Bruce M. Swinyard +10
The Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) of the Spectral and Photometric Imaging REceiver (SPIRE) on board the ESA Herschel Space Observatory has two detector setting modes: (a) a…
Relative pointing offset analysis of calibration targets with repeated observations with Herschel-SPIRE Fourier-Transform Spectrometer
Ivan Valtchanov, Rosalind Hopwood, Edward Polehampton +9
We present a method to derive the relative pointing offsets for SPIRE Fourier-Transform Spectrometer (FTS) solar system object (SSO) calibration targets, which were observed regula…
Herschel SPIRE FTS Spectral Mapping Calibration
Dominique Benielli, Edward Polehampton, Rosalind Hopwood +12
The Herschel SPIRE Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) performs spectral imaging in the 447-1546 GHz band. It can observe in three spatial sampling modes: sparse mode, with a sing…
Observing Extended Sources with the \Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer
Ronin Wu, Edward T. Polehampton, Mireya Etxaluze +20
The Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) on the European Space Agency's Herschel Space Observatory utilizes a pioneering design for its imaging spectrometer in the for…
Observations of Arp 220 using Herschel-SPIRE: An Unprecedented View of the Molecular Gas in an Extreme Star Formation Environment
Naseem Rangwala, Philip R. Maloney, Jason Glenn +20
We present Herschel SPIRE-FTS observations of Arp~220, a nearby ULIRG. The FTS continuously covers 190 -- 670 microns, providing a good measurement of the continuum and detection o…
Warm water vapour in the sooty outflow from a luminous carbon star
L. Decin, M. Agundez, M. J. Barlow +34
In 2001, the discovery of circumstellar water vapour around the ageing carbon star IRC+10216 was announced. This detection challenged the current understanding of chemistry in old…
In-flight calibration of the Herschel-SPIRE instrument
B. M. Swinyard, P. Ade, J-P. Baluteau +55
SPIRE, the Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver, is the Herschel Space Observatory's submillimetre camera and spectrometer. It contains a three-band imaging photometer operati…
