MIRI Sensitivity
The MIRI science team has provided the following tables for the MIRI photometric
and spectrograph sensitivities. All estimates assume
a low zodiacal background (important below 10 microns), a point source, and
10 sigma measurement after 10,000s.
Low resolution spectroscopy
(5-10 microns)
Medium resolution spectroscopy
(IFU, 10,000s per setting)
