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.
In this work, we will present a physical model and measurements of the transport of small charge packets in the bulk of thick high resistivity CCD before being collected by the pixel potential wells. A new technique to measure the lateral spread of t
This is a summary of the `Astronomy Perspective of the 4th meeting on Statistical Challenges in Modern Astronomy held at Penn State University in June 2006. We comment on trends in the Astronomy community towards Bayesian methods and model selection
The development of the Skipper Charge Coupled Devices (Skipper-CCDs) has been a major technological breakthrough for sensing very weak ionizing particles. The sensor allows to reach the ultimate sensitivity of silicon material as a charge signal sens
We present the status of on-going detector development efforts for our joint NASA/CNES balloon-borne UV multi-object spectrograph, the Faint Intergalactic Redshifted Emission Balloon (FIREBall-2; FB-2). FB-2 demonstrates a new UV detector technology,
X-ray SOI pixel sensors, XRPIX, are being developed for the next-generation X-ray astronomical satellite, FORCE. The XRPIX are fabricated with the SOI technology, which makes it possible to integrate a high-resistivity Si sensor and a low-resistivity
