Abstract: |
SCUBA-2 is the largest submillimeter array camera in the world and
was commissioned on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) with two arrays towards the end of 2009. A period of shared-risks
observing was then completed and the full planned complement of 8
arrays, 4 at 850 μm and 4 at 450 μm, are now installed
and ready to be commissioned. SCUBA-2 has 10,240 bolometers,
corresponding to a data rate of 8 MB/s when sampled at the nominal
rate of 200 Hz. The pipeline produces useful maps in
near real time at the telescope and often publication quality maps in
the JCMT Science Archive (JSA) hosted at the Canadian Astronomy
Data Center (CADC). |
