#This file contains the unpolarized noise curves for the baseline PIXIE mission concept # #Column 1: Center frequency for each channel # #Column 2: Noise level for one-second integration # #Column 2: Median noise level for skycube pixel at HEALPIX Nside=64 # #The baseline mission assumes 2 years of observations with 45% of observing #time spent with the calibrator deployed (sensitive to spectral distortions #and polarization) and 45% with the calibrator stowed (sensitive to #polarization only). Noise curves below refer to Stokes I. Noise levels for #Stokes Q or U with the calibrator deployed are sqrt(2) larger than Stokes I. # #PIXIE Baseline Mission Sensitivity for spectral distortions (Stokes I)
