Objective

Validate that MIPS 24 µm photometry AOT is ready for the beginning of science operations.

Description

Execute MIPS 24 µm photometry AOT for a broad range of parameter selections. For the final validation, both the small field and large field options are tested.

Data Collected

This task is implemented by commanding one cycle of 24 µm small and large field photometry for each exposure time (3, 10, 30 seconds). For the small field AOR, 3 cycles and 20 cycles are commanded for 10 s and 3 s exposure times respectively. There is also an AOR which tests the 3 s small field option for a 3x3 raster map (1 cycle). The large field AOT is tested at three different reference positions for 3 s exposures. In addition, large field is tested for 10 cycles (3 s). The target, as in MIPS-320, is Nu Dor, a B star which should span the range from 3 - 30 sec exposures without exceeding the MIPS-24 dynamic range.

Data Reformatting Requirements

Array Data Desired:

24 µm

Data Reformatting Option:

NONE
- NORMAL
Special Instructions:
Task Dependencies
- MIPS-100
- MIPS-110
Calibration Dependencies
- CSMM parameters known
- distortion correction applied
- droop
- linearity
- flats
- darks
Output and Deliverable Products
This task will confirm that the combination of FOV offsets and mirror parameters used in the MIPS Ph/SR AOT places the target in the expected positions on the array. The output product for this task will be altered versions of the IPP files and FOV table positions for MIPS 24 µm small field photometry. We will also compare the derived flux of Nu Dor to the flux expected based on stellar models.
Data Analysis
The data analysis for this task involves comparing the positions of the stellar image on the array to the positions expected based on the input CSMM parameters and FOV table. We will also compare the derived flux of the target to its expected flux.
Software Requirements
- DAT and/or SSC BCD/Post-BCD pipeline
- ENHANCER for production of photometric image
- ATV - IDL image viewer
- IDP3 or other centroiding and photometry package
- "fv" - Goddard "lheasoft" package
- plotting package (SM, IRAF, IDL)
- stellar modeling software
Actions Following Analysis
The FOV table and MIPS configuration IPPs will be updated to place imaged in the desired pixel locations on the array.
Failure Modes and Responses
Presuming that data is fully obtained, the most likely failure mode of this task is saturation of the star at the longest exposure times or lack of detection at the shortest exposure times. bright source.
