Absolute calibration of millimeter-wavelength spectral lines.
Abstract
A detailed analysis of the chopper-wheel method of calibrating the intensity of a millimeter-wavelength spectral line is presented. Special techniques were used to construct a receiver which eliminates most of the usual calibration difficulties. The zenith atmospheric extinction between 3.5 mm and 2.6 mm wavelength was measured, and teh intensities of six spectral l ines in this range were absolutely calibrated with an estimated uncertainty (1 sigma) of 7 percent. The effects of the antenna power pattern on the corrected antenna temperature T_A* are calculated for several simple models of the source brightness distribution.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
