- We detect the source at both wavelenghts, shown on the maps given below. The RMS noise at the center of the map is 5.5 mJy/Beam at 1.25mm and 0.7 mJy/Beam at 2.05mm.
Noise estimates:
- By multiplying the Jack-Knife maps with the square root of the time per pixel maps and computing the histogram of the obtained map, we are able to estimate the noise level in the data. Note that this is in the case of high opacity (we can expect the noise to be reduced by a factor of about exp(-tau/sin(elevation)) ~ 1.5-2, and even more since the resonances are larger under large optical load).
