Scientific and technical papers pertaining to SIRTF and of general interest to the broader community will be posted in this area. These Contributed Papers are informative but are not subject to review by external referees. Authors are typically members of the extended SIRTF Team, and may include staff from the SSC, JPL, the Instrument Teams, and industrial partners.

SIRTF - Science

  • "SIRTF Enters Development"
    (Bicay, Werner, Latter, Simmons)

      Overview of SIRTF's scientific capabilities, including: observing modes, types of observing programs, and the SIRTF Science Center. Note: Table 3 of this paper (SIRTF Science Schedule) has been superseded by the current version.

    SIRTF - Technical

  • "The Space InfraRed Telescope Facility"
    (Fanson, Fazio, Houck, Kelly, Rieke, Tenerelli, Whitten)

      Overview of SIRTF's technical configuration, including: the orbit, launch architecture, cryo-telescope assembly, spacecraft, and science payload.

    IRAC Instrument

  • "The Infrared Array Camera for SIRTF"
    (Fazio, Hora, Willner, Stauffer, Ashby, Wang, Tollestrup, Pipher, Forrest, McCreight, Moseley, Hoffman, Eisenhardt, Wright)

      Description of SIRTF's Infrared Array Camera (IRAC), including: scientific objectives, optical and mechanical design, detector arrays and sensitivity, electronics, operational modes, and observing methodology.

    IRS Instrument

  • "Infrared Spectrograph for SIRTF"
    (Roellig, Houck, Van Cleve, Rakowski, Stewart, Taudien, Huisjen, Bolton, Seib)

      Description of SIRTF's Infrared Spectrograph (IRS), including: science goals, design philosophy, mechanical design, optical design, focal plane detectors, warm electronics, and operations.

    MIPS Instrument

  • "Multiband Imaging Photometer for SIRTF"
    (Heim, Henderson, MacFeely, McMahon, Michika, Pearson, Rieke, Schwenker, Strecker, Thompson, Warden, Wilson, Young)
