JWST MIRI flight performance: Detector Effects and Data Reduction Algorithms
Jane Morrison, Daniel Dicken, Ioannis Argyriou +21
The detectors in the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are arsenic-21 doped silicon impurity band conduction (Si:As IBC) devices and are direc…
The James Webb Space Telescope Mission
Jonathan P. Gardner, John C. Mather, Randy Abbott +1004
Twenty-six years ago a small committee report, building on earlier studies, expounded a compelling and poetic vision for the future of astronomy, calling for an infrared-optimized…
The JWST Early Release Observations
Klaus Pontoppidan, Jaclyn Barrientes, Claire Blome +33
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Early Release Observations (EROs) is a set of public outreach products created to mark the end of commissioning and the beginning of science o…
The Astropy Project: Sustaining and Growing a Community-oriented Open-source Project and the Latest Major Release (v5.0) of the Core Package
The Astropy Collaboration, Adrian M. Price-Whelan, Pey Lian Lim +133
The Astropy Project supports and fosters the development of open-source and openly-developed Python packages that provide commonly needed functionality to the astronomical communit…
How do Spitzer IRAC Fluxes Compare to HST CALSPEC
Ralph C. Bohlin, Jessica E. Krick, Karl D. Gordon +1
An accurate tabulation of stellar brightness in physical units is essential for a multitude of scientific endeavors. The HST/CALSPEC database of flux standards contains many stars…
The James Webb Space Telescope Absolute Flux Calibration. I. Program Design and Calibrator Stars
Karl D. Gordon, Ralph Bohlin, G. C. Sloan +10
It is critical for James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) science that instrumental units are converted to physical units. We detail the design of the JWST absolute flux calibration pro…
The Astropy Problem
Demitri Muna, Michael Alexander, Alice Allen +151
The Astropy Project (http://astropy.org) is, in its own words, "a community effort to develop a single core package for Astronomy in Python and foster interoperability between Pyth…
Composite biasing in Monte Carlo radiative transfer
Maarten Baes, Karl D. Gordon, Tuomas Lunttila +4
Biasing or importance sampling is a powerful technique in Monte Carlo radiative transfer, and can be applied in different forms to increase the accuracy and efficiency of simulatio…
Benchmarking the Calculation of Stochastic Heating and Emissivity of Dust Grains in the Context of Radiative Transfer Simulations
Peter Camps, Karl Misselt, Simone Bianchi +9
We define an appropriate problem for benchmarking dust emissivity calculations in the context of radiative transfer (RT) simulations, specifically including the emission from stoch…
Techniques and Review of Absolute Flux Calibration from the Ultraviolet to the Mid-Infrared
Ralph C. Bohlin, Karl D. Gordon, P. -E. Tremblay
The measurement of precise absolute fluxes for stellar sources has been pursued with increased vigor since the discovery of the dark energy and the realization that its detailed un…
Optimal Cosmic-Ray Detection for Nondestructive Read Ramps
Rachel E. Anderson, Karl D. Gordon
Cosmic rays are a known problem in astronomy, causing both loss of data and data inaccuracy. The problem becomes even more extreme when considering data from a high-radiation envir…
SAGE-Spectroscopy: The life-cycle of dust and gas in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Data delivery document v3.0
Paul M. Woods, G. C. Sloan, Karl D. Gordon +3
The SAGE-Spectroscopy Spitzer legacy program (SAGE-Spec; PI: F. Kemper, PID: 40159; Kemper et al. 2010) is the IRS spectroscopic follow-up to the successful SAGE-LMC legacy program…
