Characterization of the ACE-FTS instrument line shape
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment (ACE) is the mission selected by the Canadian Space Agency for its new science satellite, SCISAT-1. Dr. Peter Bernath of the University of Waterloo is the ACE Mission Scientist, and ABB is the industrial contractor for the development of the ACE primary instrument. The ACE primary instrument is an infrared Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) coupled with an auxiliary 2-channel visible and near infrared imager. The FTS, operating from 2.4 to 13.3 microns, will measure at an unapodised resolution of 0.02 cm-1 the infrared absorption signals that contain information on different atmospheric layers to provide vertical profiles of atmospheric constituents. Its highly folded design results in a very high performance instrument with a compact size. The imager will monitor aerosols based on the extinction of solar radiation using two filtered detectors at 1.02 and 0.525 microns. The instrument also includes a suntracker, which provides the sun radiance to both the FTS and the imager during solar occultation of the earth’s atmosphere. In order to meet all science objectives, the instrument line width of the ACE-FTS has to be smaller than 0.028 cm-1. There are however different instrument function contributors affecting the width and the symmetry of spectral lines. These contributors are related to effects inherent to the instrument. This paper will describe these different effects and their impacts on the instrument line shape (ILS). Results obtained during the ILS characterisation of the flight model will be presented. A short description of a correction algorithm is also discussed.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
