An optical test bench for the precision characterization of absolute quantum efficiency for the TESS CCD detectors
Akshata Krishnamurthy, Joel Villasenor, Steve Kissel +2
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) will search for planets transiting bright stars with Ic<13. TESS has been selected by NASA for launch in 2018 as an Astrophysics Ex…
Brute-Force Mapmaking with Compact Interferometers: A MITEoR Northern Sky Map from 128 MHz to 175 MHz
H. Zheng, M. Tegmark, J. Dillon +24
We present a new method for interferometric imaging that is ideal for the large fields of view and compact arrays common in 21 cm cosmology. We first demonstrate the method with si…
MITEoR: A Scalable Interferometer for Precision 21 cm Cosmology
Haoxuan Zheng, Max Tegmark, Victor Buza +34
We report on the MIT Epoch of Reionization (MITEoR) experiment, a pathfinder low-frequency radio interferometer whose goal is to test technologies that improve the calibration prec…
The REgolith X-Ray Imaging Spectrometer (REXIS) for OSIRIS-REx: Identifying Regional Elemental Enrichment on Asteroids
Branden Allen, Jonathan Grindlay, Jaesub Hong +10
The OSIRIS-REx Mission was selected under the NASA New Frontiers program and is scheduled for launch in September of 2016 for a rendezvous with, and collection of a sample from the…
Mapping our Universe in 3D with MITEoR
Haoxuan Zheng, Max Tegmark, Victor Buza +33
Mapping our universe in 3D by imaging the redshifted 21 cm line from neutral hydrogen has the potential to overtake the cosmic microwave background as our most powerful cosmologica…
