Cryogenic imag<strong>in</strong>g spectrometer (FTS, 35 - 210 um).<br />

Herschel class <strong>in</strong>strument (c.f. SPIRE, PACS).<br />

Cold assembly < 50 kg (IOB). Warm electronics < 30 kg (SVM).<br />

Selection of detector technology impacts design (~ 6000 px:<br />

TES, KID, Si bolometers, Photo-cond.); planned by mid 2010).<br />

Phase A study conducted assum<strong>in</strong>g adoption of TES.<br />

Additional <strong>in</strong>ternal cooler required by TES, KID and Si-<br />

Bolometer (Sorption Cooler + ADR � ~ 100 mK).<br />

PFM delivery to JAXA required by end 2015.<br />

CRITICAL AREAS:<br />

1. Detector array and read-out electronics development<br />

(compet<strong>in</strong>g: KID, TES, Si-Bolometers, Photoconductors � key<br />

decision by mid-2010).<br />

2. Internal cooler (~100 mK, SC+ADR, unless PC’s selected).<br />

3. FTS scann<strong>in</strong>g mechanism (operat<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> cryo conditions).<br />

4. Constra<strong>in</strong>ed mass and cool<strong>in</strong>g power resources.<br />

5. Compressed development schedule (FM by 2015).<br />
