2. Introduction Galaxy M51 SMA C 12 O Emission J=2-1 Data Reduction Analysis Data

3. Galaxy M51 Position (J2000): R.A. 13h 29m 52.37s Dec. +47°11' 40.8" Constellation: Canes Venatici Distance:About 9.6 Mpc Visual Magnitude:8.4 http://oposite.stsci.edu/pubinfo/PR/2001/10/index.html 3arcmin 9.3 kpc 1acrmin 50 arcsec (Field of view)

4. Sub-Millimeter Array Antenna: 5 Diameter:6-meter Covering bands :230 - 350 GHz Position: Summit of Mauna Kea, Hawaii http://www.asiaa.sinica.edu.tw/Research/SMART/index.html

5. OC Because of CO molecule has a permanent dipole moment,the binary molecule with a simples ladder of rotational level spaced such that the lowest transition are in the millimeter wavelength. 12 CO Emission J=2-1

6. J is the quantum number of total angular momentum correspond to the rotational level. Frequency : 230.538 GHz Energy : 16.6 Κ (upper level above ground) J=0 J=1 J=2 h ν= E 2 -E 1 h ν =E 1 -E 0

7. Observation Observation date : 2002 Feb 17,18 Telescope : SMA 6m(diameter)×5(antenna) 10 baseline Field of view : 50’’ @230 GH Z Bandwidth : 320 MH Z ~ 417.39 km/s((82 MH Z ~106.7 km/s)× 4) Spectral resolution : 812.5 KH Z ~1.06 km/s Gain calibrator : 1310 + 323 Band pass calibrator : Jupiter

8. Data Reduction Why using the Gain Calibration? Phase Amplitude t t Due to the instrument instability and atmosphere variation, it is necessary to do the gain calibration, and the better calibrator is quasar because it’s has a simple visibility function. V(u,v)=∫ ∞ - ∞ ∫ ∞ - ∞ A(x,y) I(x,y)e i2(ux+vy) dxdy 0 0 constant

11. After Gain Calibration After calibration the phase is becoming zero(blue)&M51 drift like function.

12. II.Band Pass Calibration In the SMA Aarry each channel have four chunks Before band Pass Calibration

13. 1chunk=82MHZ ≒ 106.7 km/s 1channel =4×chunk ≒ 320MHZ ≒ 417.39 Calibrator : Jupiter This calibrator must be strong enough that can clear display each of the chuck’s pattern. After Calibration Jupiter’s Spectra Spectra
