Task Outcome Summary


Abstract

We have constructed the 160micron IC for SCAN mode. The standard deviation of the 160micron IC over the entire array is approximately 49%, but this statistics includes the illumination pattern of the 160micron array.

Analysis

We have observed 2 degrees (1 leg) in fast mode for three different regions of the sky (zodi_13a, zodi_13b, and zodi28b). Note that two of the 160micron SCAN regions were observed in MIPS-914 and MIPS-915.

Since these tasks are repeated a number of times during IOC, we will observe different regions of the sky each time. The tasks will check for possible variations of quality of IC or saturation. This task will also be useful for screening regions of the sky to obtain ICs in SIRTF routine operations.

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 160micron me_160_dark_CamO_1_3nov2003.fits) and mips_enhancer with the following options:

verbose = 0
scale = 1.
filename = ic160_scan
prefix = ic_scan160
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


Note that we rejected the first DCE after the stim flash (reject = 1 option) and normalized the input images (NormalizeInput = 1 option).

The regions of the sky observed were:

zodi_13a (RA=07:03:28.1676 and Dec=+27:40:03.6574, J2000) with a predicted brightness at 160microns of 8.2 MJy/sr,
zodi_13b (RA=21:05:07.4259 and Dec=-21:54:04.3864, J2000) with a predicted brightness at 160microns of 8.0 MJy/sr.
zodi_28b (RA=21:32:18.5321 and Dec=-19:52:22.7257, J2000) with a predicted brightness at 160microns of 9.3 MJy/sr,


The predicted values of the 160micron brightness are from SPOT for the date of the observing (Nov 1, 2003).


Results

The SCAN mode 160micron IC constructed using 460DCEs observed in Campaign O is shown in Figure1. We have also built ICs for each of the regions observed. Statistics on the images provides the following (mean, std, median, mode, skewness, min, max):

SCAN three reg (480DCEs): 0.9872   0.4933    1.01   0.3199   0.2333   0.2952    2.044
SCAN zodi13a (160DCEs): 0.9958    0.505    0.999   0.3257   0.2969   0.3004    2.129
SCAN zodi13b (160DCEs): 0.975   0.4828   0.9894   0.3135   0.1641   0.2893    1.98
SCAN zodi28b (160DCEs): 0.954   0.4768   0.9747   0.3073   0.2358   0.2834    2.022

A better way to assess the quality of the observed ICs is to remove the illumination pattern of the 160micron array. To do so, we ratioed different 160micron IC. The statistics (mean, std, median, mode, skewness, min, max) on the images provides the following:

ratio ICs SCAN zodi13a/zodi13b: 1.019    0.04945    1.012   0.9818   0.5043   0.9255    1.142

ratio ICs SCAN zodi13a/zodi28b: 1.042    0.04079    1.035    1.034   0.8608   0.9675    1.174

ratio ICs SCAN zodi13b/zodi28b: 1.024    0.05144    1.016   0.9972    0.554   0.9221    1.169



Conclusions

We have constructed 160micron ICs for SCAN mode using three regions of the sky (zodi_13a, zodi_13b, zodi_28b). The standard deviations of the 160micron ICs over the entire array are approximately 50%, but this statistics includes the illumination pattern of the 160micron array. If we remove the illumination pattern by ratioing two SCAN ICs, we find that the rms is approximately 5%.
