The Pointing System of the Herschel Space Observatory. Description, Calibration, Performance and Improvements
Miguel Sánchez-Portal, Anthony Marston, Bruno Altieri +14
We present the activities carried out to calibrate and characterise the performance of the elements of attitude control and measurement on board the Herschel spacecraft. The main c…
The Herschel-PACS photometer calibration: Point-source flux calibration for scan maps
Zoltan Balog, Thomas Müller, Markus Nielbock +9
This paper provides an overview of the PACS photometer flux calibration concept, in particular for the principal observation mode, the scan map. The absolute flux calibration is ti…
The Herschel PACS photometer calibration - A time dependent flux calibration for the PACS chopped point-source photometry AOT mode
Markus Nielbock, Thomas Müller, Ulrich Klaas +7
We present a flux calibration scheme for the PACS chopped point-source photometry observing mode based on the photometry of five stellar standard sources. This mode was used for sc…
The effect of the high-pass filter data reduction technique on the Herschel PACS Photometer PSF and noise
P. Popesso, B. Magnelli, S. Buttiglione +36
We investigate the effect of the "high-pass filter" data reduction technique on the Herschel PACS PSF and noise of the PACS maps at the 70, 100 and 160 um bands and in medium and f…
