baseline

This is an old revision of the document!


The baseline mission configuration will evolve with time; this page records the baseline at any epoch.

Latest Update: V4.0/4.1 - Aug. 1, 2018

Provenance

January 2018 - Based on the V3 focal plane considered by the first TeamX review, simplified to uniformly-sized single-pixel hexagonal wafers for initial simulation-based studies.

July 2018 - Table with number of detectors was updated. Focal plane figure was not updated, so is even more wrong then it initially was.
