skysurvey: a pure python package to simulate the transient sky
M. Rigault, M. Ginolin, L. Dellazzeri +12
Accurate simulation of astronomical observations is a critical element for any modern analyses, be it to measure event rates, analyses population properties, validate or train pipe…
Probing the role of magnetic fields in star-forming filaments: NIKA2-Pol commissioning results toward OMC-1
H. Ajeddig, R. Adam, P. Ade +43
Dust polarization observations are a powerful, practical tool to probe the geometry (and to some extent, the strength) of magnetic fields in star-forming regions. In particular, Pl…
PANCO2: a new software to measure pressure profiles from resolved thermal SZ observations
Florian Kéruzoré, Emmanuel Artis, Juan-Francisco Macías-Pérez +4
We have developed a new software to perform the measurement of galaxy cluster pressure profiles from high angular resolution thermal SZ observations. The code allows the user to ta…
Observing with NIKA2Pol from the IRAM 30m telescope. Early results on the commissioning phase
A. Ritacco, R. Adam, P. Ade +41
The NIKA2 polarization channel at 260 GHz (1.15 mm) has been proposed primarily to observe galactic star-forming regions and probe the critical scales between 0.01-0.05 pc at which…
NIKA2 mapping and cross-instrument SED extraction of extended sources with Scanamorphos
H. Roussel, N. Ponthieu, R. Adam +38
The steps taken to tailor to NIKA2 observations the Scanamorphos algorithm (initially developed to subtract low-frequency noise from Herschel on-the-fly observations) are described…
Calibration and Performance of the NIKA2 camera at the IRAM 30-meter Telescope
L. Perotto, N. Ponthieu, J. -F. Macías-Pérez +45
NIKA2 is a dual-band millimetric continuum camera of 2900 Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID), operating at and , installed at the IRAM 30-meter telescope. We p…
The NIKA2 instrument at 30-m IRAM telescope: performance and results
A. Catalano, R. Adam, P. A. R. Ade +84
The New IRAM KID Arrays 2 (NIKA2) consortium has just finished installing and commissioning a millimetre camera on the IRAM 30 m telescope. It is a dual-band camera operating with…
The NIKA2 large field-of-view millimeter continuum camera for the 30-m IRAM telescope
Remi Adam, Amar Adane, P. A. R. Ade +45
Millimeter-wave continuum astronomy is today an indispensable tool for both general Astrophysics studies and Cosmology. General purpose, large field-of-view instruments are needed…
Polarimetry at millimeter wavelengths with the NIKA camera: calibration and performance
A. Ritacco, N. Ponthieu, A. Catalano +37
Magnetic fields, which play a major role in a large number of astrophysical processes from galactic to cosmological scales, can be traced via observations of dust polarization as d…
The NIKA2 commissioning campaign: performance and first results
A. Catalano, R. Adam, P. Ade +39
The New IRAM KID Array 2 (NIKA 2) is a dual-band camera operating with three frequency-multiplexed kilopixels arrays of Lumped Element Kinetic Inductance Detectors (LEKID) cooled a…
NIKA 2: next-generation continuum/polarized camera at the IRAM 30 m telescope and its prototype
A. Ritacco, R. Adam, A. Adane +36
NIKA 2 (New Instrument of Kids Array) is a next generation continuum and polarized instrument successfully installed in October 2015 at the IRAM 30 m telescope on Pico-Veleta (Gran…
