Infrared Parallaxes for Methane T Dwarfs
We report final results from our 2.5 year infrared parallax program carried out with the European Southern Observatory 3.5m New Technology Telescope and the SOFI infrared camera. Our program targeted precision astrometric observations of ten T type brown dwarfs in the J band. Full astrometric solutions (including trigonometric parallaxes) for nine T dwarfs are provided along with proper motion ...
متن کاملNonlinear infrared plasmonic waveguide arrays
The large negative permittivity of noble metals in the infrared region prevents the possibility of highly confined plasmons in simple waveguide structures such as thin films or rods. This is a critical obstacle to applications of nonlinear plasmonics in the telecommunication wavelength region. We theoretically propose and numerically demonstrate that such limitation can be overcome by exploitin...
متن کاملInfrared Detector Arrays for Astronomy
Use of infrared detector arrays in astronomy began roughly 20 years ago, and our detection capabilities in parts of this spectral range have doubled about every seven months since then. A variety of approaches are now used for detector arrays operating from 1 μm to 1 mm and beyond. They include direct hybrid arrays of InSb and HgCdTe photodiodes that operate from 0.6μm to 5μm, and of Si:As impu...
متن کاملFar infrared response of silicon nanowire arrays
The reflection, transmission and absorbance spectra of silicon nanowire arrays (NWAs), as a function of the length of the nanowires, are investigated in a wavelength range of 15 mm , l , 200 mm, using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy in vacuum. The NWAs are fabricated using metal-assisted electroless chemical etching. The wire length is varied between 20 mm and 140 mm, which is of the sa...
متن کاملMicrolens Parallaxes with SIRTF
The Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) will drift away from the Earth at ∼ 0.1 AU yr. Microlensing events will therefore have different characteristics as seen from the satellite and the Earth. From the difference, it is possible in principle to measure ṽ, the transverse velocity of the lens projected onto the observer plane. Since ṽ has very different values for different populations (d...
