SCUBA sensitivity calibration
SCUBA sensitivity calibration |
 |
Primary calibrators - A brief note describing how to get the fluxes for the
primary calibrators Mars, Uranus and Neptune, including a link to an online calculator.
Secondary calibrators - A discussion of available calibrators, suggested usage as well as fluxes.
Sensitivities - Measuring SCUBA's sensitivity: typical values plus instructions for calculating NEFDs.
Flux conversion factors (FCFs) - Suggested FCFs for SCUBA, updated approximately monthly - these be used to cross-check that your own, more precise, measurements are plausible. Beware of the large errors on some measurements though, and of possible elevation and temperature dependencies which may create systematic differences.
Chop throw - sensitivity relations - Need to calibrate data using values obtained with another chop throw? Here's how to make the conversion.
Noise plots - showing each bolometer in the array.
