Task Outcome Summary


Abstract

We have constructed the 70micron Narrow Field (NF) IC. The standard deviation of the 70micron IC over the entire array is 68%, but this statistics includes the illumination pattern of the 70micron array.

Analysis

We have observed a 70micron narrow-field photometry cluster-target AOR with 3 second DCEs and 6 pointings in a rectangular pattern (2x3, with 300 arcsec offsets) for a region of sky free of bright 70micron point-sources. The total number of DCEs is 132 times 2 observations for a total of 169 DCEs in the final combined image.

The reduction was performed with the DAT programs. We used mips_sloper with sensitive cosmic ray detection (-q option) turning off the electronic non-linearity correction, mips_caler (using the me_70_darka_CamR_20nov2003.fits) and mips_enhancer with the following options:

verbose = 0
scale = 1.
filename = ic70_scan
prefix = ic_scan70
nXTile = 1
nYTile = 1
dark = 0
flat = 0
illumination_correction = 1
NormalizeInput = 1
SigmaCut = 3.0
SigmaTolerance = 0.25
MaxIterations = 10
StackSTDEV = 0
OutlierMinPoints = 3
QuartileFactor = 10
OverlapTolerance = 0.5
diagonistics = 1
WriteGeometry = 0
WriteOutlier = 0
WriteTiles = 0
FluxMean = 0
FluxMedian = 1
OverWrite = 1
distortion = 0
UseBoostFrame = 1
reject = 1
NormalizeSideA = 1


Note that we rejected the first DCE after the stim flash (reject = 1 option) and normalized the input images (NormalizeInput = 1 option) using Side-A only (NormalizeSideA = 1).

The observed region of the sky was:

zodi_14b (RA=09:32:18.5321 and Dec=+19:52:22.7257, J2000) with a predicted brightness at 70microns of 15.3 MJy/sr.

The predicted values of the 70micron brightness are from SPOT for the date of the observing (Nov 17, 2003).


Results

The NF 70micron IC is shown in Figure1. Statistics on the images provides the following:

PHOT (85DCEs) zodi_14b: mean= 0.36199; median= 0.54145; sdtdev= 0.68307; skew=-0.21150;

The histogram is shown in Figure2.

A better way to assess the quality of the observed ICs is to remove the illumination pattern of the 70micron array. To do so, we ratioed different 70micron IC, one made with half of the DCEs and the other with the remaining half. The statistics (mean, std, median, mode, skewness, min, max) on the images provides the following:

ratio ICs NF(43DCEs)/SCAN(43DCEs): 1.543    3.851    1.001   0.9715    12.72    0.003806    62.66
Side A alone: 1.021   0.1067    1.017   0.9999    0.04466   0.7171    1.353
Side B alone: 2.161    5.63    1.092   0.8814    8.555    0.003806    62.66

Conclusions

We have constructed 70micron ICs obtained in NF mode using one region of the sky (zodi_14b). The standard deviation of the 70micron IC over the entire array is approximately 68%, but this statistics includes the illumination pattern of the 70micron array. If we remove the illumination pattern by ratioing two NF ICs, we find that the rms is approximately 11% in side A.

Output and Deliverable Products

70micron IC to be used to reduce data obtained in campaign R.
