TL;DR: The Fine Guidance Sensor (FGS) is one of the four science instruments on board the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) as mentioned in this paper, which consists of two modules: an infrared camera dedicated to fine guiding of the observatory and a science camera module, the Near-Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS) covering the wavelength range between 0.7 and 5.0 μm with a field of view of 2.2' X 2'
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Digital frequency domain multiplexing readout electronics for the next generation of millimeter telescopes
Amy N. Bender,J. F. Cliche,Tijmen de Haan,Matt Dobbs,Matt Dobbs,A. Gilbert,Joshua Montgomery,Neil Rowlands,Graeme Smecher,Ken Smith,Andrew Wilson +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the next generation frequency domain multiplexing (fMux) readout, focusing on the warm electronics, which increases the number of channels per module (2 wires) while maintaining low noise levels and detector stability.
Journal ArticleDOI
The montreal near-infrared camera
TL;DR: In this article, a near-infrard (10 microns-2.5 microns) camera was used at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope and at the Observatoire du Mont Megantic 1.6 m telescope.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Waves Michelson Interferometer: a visible/near-IR interferometer for observing middle atmosphere dynamics and constituents
TL;DR: The Waves Michelson Interferometer (WAMI) as mentioned in this paper was designed to provide simultaneous measurements of dynamical and constituent signatures in the upper stratosphere, mesosphere and lower thermosphere.
