deshima-sensitivity

Sensitivity calculator for DESHIMA-type spectrometers

Overview

deshima-sensitivity is a Python package which enables to calculate observation sensitivity of DESHIMA-type spectrometers. Currently it is mainly used to estimate the observation sensitivity of DESHIMA and its successors.

An online Jupyter notebook is available for DESHIMA collaborators to calculate the sensitivity and the mapping speed of the DESHIMA 2.0 by themselves. Click the budge below to open it in Google colaboratory (a Google account is necessary to re-run it).
