Heterodyne Polarimetry

At the time of this writing (early March 2004) the new ACSIS spectrometer is still scheduled to arrive in May for commissioning in semester 04A. However, there are indications that its delivery may be delayed until the Fall. For the current round of application (04B), continue to use the DAS values for sensitivity, bandwidth, etc. However, the expected "Day 1" backend configurations of ACSIS can be viewed here.

Heterodyne Integration Time Calculator This facility is a web-based and stand-alone perl script for estimating the required integration time (or rms noise) for heterodyne observations.
