MIRI Low Resolution Spectroscopy Sarah Kendrew European Space Agency (Baltimore) on behalf of the MIRI Team

Low-resolution Spectroscopy Overview Design and operating principles Focal plane locations LRS testing & data Preparing an LRS observation: slit vs. slitless Performance Strengths & weaknesses Further reading: Kendrew et al, PASP 2015 and SPIE 2016: MIRI LRS Bouchet at al, PASP 2015: MIRI Imager Glasse et al, PASP 2015: MIRI Sensitivity Gordon et al, PASP 2015: MIRI Operations

LRS Basics & Design R ~ 100 spectroscopy of compact sources from 5- (10) 12 µm (~40 to 160 over the 5-10 µm range) Can be operated in slitted (4.7 x 0.52”) or slitless mode Shares focal plane with the imager & coronagraph modes Dispersion via double prism in filter wheel Imager focal plane µm px

Focal plane layout Slitless spectroscopy: Fixed pointing position Subarray readout Min. frame time 0.16s Slitted spectroscopy: Fixed slit location Full array readout Imager field not blocked 5-12 µm spectrum dispersed over ~370 px Dedicated target acquisition region

An LRS Spectrum

LRS Testing Numerous test campaigns Further analysis & modeling MIRI Imager testing @ CEA Saclay, 2009-2010 MIRI flight test campaign @ RAL, 2011 CV campaigns @ Goddard, 2013-2016 JPL detector testing (persistence, subarrays etc Further analysis & modeling Sensitivity, PCE, detector yield (see Glasse, Dicken) PSF modeling (artefact)

Preparing an LRS observation: SLIT Source: point or extended Target acquisition: Choice of 4 filters Dedicated TA region Not compulsory Dithering 2 along-slit nods Off-slit background Read mode FAST/SLOW Imager focal plane

Preparing an LRS observation: SLITLESS Choice of slitless mode triggers Time Series Observation operational mode Dedicated subarray & pipeline branch Target acquisition (TBD): Choice of 4 filters (NDF likely) Centroiding in slitless subarray NO Dithering Max exposure time of 3 hours WAIVED Min. frame time in FAST: 0.17s

Astronomers Proposal Tool: LRS template FULL SLITLESS (SUBPRISM) Point source Extended target SLOW FAST NGROUPS currently ≥ 4 (TBD)

Performance: Line sensitivity (SLIT) Glasse et al, PASP 2015 (erratum) SLITLESS sensitivity: Factor ~10 worse NB: does not yet include revised detector quantum yield

Performance: Continuum sensitivity (SLIT) Glasse et al, PASP 2015 (erratum) SLITLESS sensitivity: Factor ~10 worse NB: does not yet include revised detector quantum yield

Bright limits (SLIT) SLITLESS MODE: Factor 17 higher Glasse et al, PASP 2015 SLITLESS MODE: Factor 17 higher Min value: 63 mJy @ 5.5 µm (K~8) Assumes 2-frame reads, < 60% full well Full array FAST mode (frame time ~3s) NB: does not yet include revised detector quantum yield

Limitations/Open Questions Slitless/Time Series Observations: Effect of the turnover in dispersion? Bright limits Achievable stability & precision for very short ramps Calibration data products based on ground test data Focused on nominal range of 5-10 µm PSF model not yet optimal Wavelength calibration for λ < 5 µm and λ > 10 µm has larger uncertainties µm px

LRS strengths & weaknesses Built by the same heroes as the MIRI Imager Meets & exceeds requirements e.g. wavelength coverage Excellent complement to MRS and NIR spectroscopic modes: low-resolution, instantaneous broad wavelength coverage Slitless mode offers the ability to perform high-quality time series observations, e.g. suitable for MANY exoplanet host stars WEAKNESSES (/CAVEATS) Spectral foldover below 4.5 µm unmitigated for slitless mode Calibration not yet optimal, especially outside the nominal range
