The System Laboratory
for Alignment and Calibration (SLAC) is where the WFC3 ground
support equipment (GSE) will be built, integrated, and calibrated.
The lab is located at GSFC in the Building 20 high-bay.
The main activities in the lab include:
- Alignment
and calibration of the original WFPC Stimulus.
- Stimulus
modifications for WFC3.
- Stimulus
alignment and calibration.
- Metrology
equipment calibration and testing.
In addition,
because of its proximity to the
DCL, the lab will also be supporting some cleanroom
operations for flight detector changeouts in the test cryostats.
The lab can
potentially support the ambient testing of WFC3 with the
Stimulus, but we are currently planning to move the Stimulus
to another area for these tests.
