The FLARE mission: Deep and Wide-field 1-5m Imaging and Spectroscopy for the Early Universe: a proposal for M5 Cosmic Vision call
D. Burgarella, P. Levacher, S. Vives +2
FLARE (First Light And Reionization Explorer) is a space mission that will be submitted to ESA (M5 call). Its primary goal (about 80% of lifetime) is to identify and study galaxies…
The adaptive optics modes for HARMONI: from Classical to Laser Assisted Tomographic AO
B. Neichel, T. Fusco, J. -F. Sauvage +25
HARMONI is a visible and NIR integral field spectrograph, providing the E-ELT's core spectroscopic capability at first light. HARMONI will work at the diffraction limit of the E-EL…
Multi-purpose InSTRument for Astronomy at Low-resolution: MISTRAL@OHP
J. Schmitt, C. Adami, M. Dennefeld +31
MISTRAL is the new Faint Object Spectroscopic Camera mounted at the folded Cassegrain focus of the 1.93m telescope of Haute-Provence Observatory. We describe the design and compone…
Current status of the Spectrograph System for the SuMIRe/PFS
S. Vives, D. Le Mignant, J. E. Gunn +17
The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) is a new facility instrument for Subaru Telescope which will be installed in around 2017. It is a multi-object spectrograph fed by about 2400 fib…
Photometric redshifts for supernovae Ia in the Supernova Legacy Survey
N. Palanque-Delabrouille, V. Ruhlmann-Kleider, S. Pascal +17
We present a method using the SALT2 light curve fitter to determine the redshift of Type Ia supernovae in the Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) based on their photometry in g', r', i'…
The EUCLID NISP grisms flight models performance
Anne Costille, A. Caillat, C. Rossin +6
ESA EUCLID mission will be launched in 2020 to understand the nature of the dark energy responsible of the accelerated expansion of the Universe and to map the geometry of the dark…
Multi Object Spectrograph of the Fireball-II Balloon Experiment
G Lemaitre, R. Grange, S Quiret +3
Fireball-II is a NASA/CNES balloon-borne telescope and MOS to study faint diffuse emissions of galaxies in the space ultraviolet. The MOS is based on two identical reflective Schmi…
SUBARU prime focus spectrograph: integration, testing and performance for the first spectrograph
F. Madec, A. Le Fur, D. Le Mignant +22
The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) of the Subaru Measurement of Images and Redshifts (SuMIRe) project for Subaru telescope consists in four identical spectrographs fed by 600 fiber…
