Optical Design for Extremely Large Telescope
Designing an adaptive optics (AO) system for extremely large telescopes (ELT’s) will present new optical engineering challenges. Several of these challenges are addressed in this work, including first-order design of multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) systems, pyramid wavefront sensors (PWFS’s), and laser guide star (LGS) spot elongation. MCAO systems need to be designed in consideration of...
متن کاملRefractive Dual Band Infrared Imager Optical Design
Infrared imagers are important for reorganization and monitoring. This paper discusses the design of an infrared imager. Optical design in medium wavelength infrared (MWIR) and long wavelength infrared (LWIR) bands is different and needs distinct detectors and materials. Reflective systems are not suitable due to their small field of view (FOV) and vignetting. Refractive dual band optical syste...
متن کاملOptical Design and Fabrication for an Extremely Large Telescope
Three large segmented-mirror telescopes already exist -Keck I, Keck II and Hobby Eberly. Others are in work or have been proposed, including the Gran Telescopio CANARIAS (GTC), the Large Aperture MultiObject Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST), the Mexican Infrared-Optical Telescope (TIM) and the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT). These projects serve as the starting point for the design of ...
متن کاملThe Evolving Science Case for a large Optical – Infrared Telescope in Antarctica
The summits of the Antarctic plateau provide superlative conditions for optical and infrared astronomy on account of the dry, cold and stable atmosphere. A telescope on one would be more sensitive, and provide better imaging quality, than if placed anywhere else on the Earth. Building such a telescope is, of course, challenging, and so requires a strong scientific motivation. This article descr...
متن کاملHabitable Exoplanet Imager Optical Telescope Concept Design
The Habitable Exoplanet Imaging Mission (HabEx) is one of four missions under study for the 2020 Astrophysics Decadal Survey. Its goal is to directly image and spectroscopically characterize planetary systems in the habitable zone of Sunlike stars. Additionally, HabEx will perform a broad range of general astrophysics science enabled by 100 to 2500 nm spectral range and 3 x 3 arc-minute FOV. Cr...
