Descripción
To carry out J-PAS survey, the JST/T250 telescope at the Observatorio
Astrofósico de Javalambre (OAJ) is equipped with JPCam, a
panoramic camera designed to exploit survey capabilities of the
telescope. JPCam is a direct imaging instrument designed to work in a
fast convergent beam at the telescope’s Cassegrain focus. It is
based on state-of-the-art, high efficiency, low noise 9.2k-by-9.2k,
10μm pixel CCDs specially developed by e2v for JPCam. The instrument
is equipped with a 1.2Gpixel mosaic of 14 CCDs providing a useful FoV of
4.7 deg2 (67% focal plane coverage) with a plate scale of 0.2267
arcsec/pix. Moreover, JPCam includes 12 auxiliary detectors for
auto-guiding and wave front sensing purposes. JPCam is completed with an
innovative set of 59 optical filters specifically designed to perform
accurate BAO measurements, main science driver of J-PAS.
