Conference summary: Workshop on Precision Astronomy with Fully Depleted CCDs (2014)


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Thick fully depleted CCDs, while enabling wide spectral response, also present challenges in understanding the systematic errors due to 3D charge transport. This 2014 Workshop on Precision Astronomy with Fully Depleted CCDs covered progress that has been made in the testing and modeling of these devices made since a workshop by the same name in 2013. Presentations covered the science drivers, CCD characterization, laboratory measurements of systematics, calibration, and different approaches to modeling the response and charge transport. The key issue is the impact of these CCD sensor features on dark energy science, including astrometry and photometry. Successful modeling of the spatial systematics can enable first order correction in the data processing pipeline.
