Telecon 20180411

Attending: Brian, Roger, Jeff F., Shaul, Karl, Qi

Notes by : Qi

Agenda

  • Imager topics to discuss in the workshop/future
    • 1/f noise and modulator
    • ADR + Temperature stability

Notes

  • Sidelobes
    • simulation in GRASP:only mirrors and stop; no sunshield, no baffle, no cold box
    • slide 2 & 3
      • theta: 0 deg is central ray; positive is going down in the right figure
      • the peak at 0 deg in upper left is corresponding to the “north pole” in lower left
      • going from north pole straight down to south in lower left is going positive in upper left; going from north pole along the rim to south is going negative in upper left
      • -75 deg primary sidelobe
        • spillover passing the primary
    • slide 4
      • Rejection needed; a measure of signal level
      • right side: Rejection needed below 1 um arcmin
    • slide 5
      • horizontal lines: below which the signal would be rejected. For example, the signal from galaxy would be rejected below purple line
      • vertical lines: middle red line is shield; pink and red are where moon and earth would appear
      • the area between the lines (~ -180 to ~ 40 deg) is the direct view
      • Closures are not included. Adding a closure similar to Planck, covers PR.
      • We are not going to calculate with shields at the moment. We are not sure if there will be issue. It's beyond the scope of current study.
      • Brian: one of main sidelobes could be from the bump close to focal plane, ADR. Shaul: the size of the bump has been reduced, the figure in slide 2&3 is not accurate, so it may not be a problem.
      • Moving ADR down: 1) magnetic field from SUIQD, 2) sidelobe, 3) cooling issue
