Action Items and Status

UMN to develop focal plane loading model including load from mirror(s) and cold stop as a function of temperature
- Ongoing
JPL to develop scaling of cooling cost depending on what mass we cool to which temperature
Need input on feasibility and cost model of deployable shields
Roger to work on ASIC solutions to TDM, FDM
- discuss with Matt
- do wiring load trade-off between the two options
~~UMN, investigate DLFOV trade-off between crossed and open dragone~~ Largely complete.
Amy, determine cost difference for larger mirrors
~~Brad, determine sidelobe analysis done for EPIC. How was galaxy contamination accounted for.~~
Amy, begin a matrix of possible science outputs.
- First version sent to Shaul
~~Brad will revisit EPIC-IM sidelobe analysis, will report next week on what is required to fire up the analysis for CMBP.~~ Answer: can repeat the analysis. Not clear that we need right now.
UMN follow up on coma corrections for the Dragone telescope
- ongoing
~~UMN/Brad check on sidelobes for open Dragone system~~ Open system doesn't have the near sidelobe that the crossed system has. And easier to implement a cold stop.
Amy will check whether there is anyone at JPL to run GRASP
Amy to provide feedback on sun-shield style, geometry, and explore deployable shields
UMN will investigate the Open Dragone (anyone else interested in exploring optical design?)
- Ongoing
~~Shaul will communicate with Amy re: shields, including spherex shields.~~
Kris assessing impact of combination of alpha+beta
- Ongoing
~~Jamie will post spherex's deployable design on the JPL wiki~~
