Euclid. Properties and performance of the NISP signal estimator
Euclid Collaboration, F. Cogato, B. Kubik +292
The Euclid spacecraft, located at the second Lagrangian point of the Sun-Earth system, hosts the Near-Infrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP) instrument. NISP is equipped with…
Euclid preparation: The NISP spectroscopy channel, on ground performance and calibration
Euclid Collaboration, W. Gillard, T. Maciaszek +356
ESA's Euclid cosmology mission relies on the very sensitive and accurately calibrated spectroscopy channel of the Near-Infrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP). With three opera…
Euclid preparation. Overview of Euclid infrared detector performance from ground tests
Euclid Collaboration, B. Kubik, R. Barbier +341
The paper describes the objectives, design and findings of the pre-launch ground characterisation campaigns of the Euclid infrared detectors. The pixel properties, including baseli…
Performance of the image persistence model for Euclid infrared detectors
B. Kubik, R. Barbier, G. Smadja +99
Large-format infrared detectors are at the heart of major ground and space-based astronomical instruments, and the HgCdTe HxRG is the most widely used. The Near Infrared Spectromet…
