SkipperCam: a wide-field Skipper-CCD pathfinder for high-cadence imaging with sub-electron capabilities
We present SkipperCam, a Skipper-CCD imager pathfinder designed to demonstrate the potential of low-noise, high-cadence wide-field imaging. The pathfinder deploys a 20-sensor Skipper-CCD focal plane (∼27 Mpix) on the 0.6 m Curtis–Schmidt telescope at CTIO, reusing the existing PreCam camera body, shutter, and filter wh...
