ProtoEXIST: Advanced Prototype CZT Coded Aperture Telescopes for EXIST
Branden Allen, Jaesub Hong, Josh Grindlay +9
{\it ProtoEXIST1} is a pathfinder for the {\it EXIST-HET}, a coded aperture hard X-ray telescope with a 4.5 m CZT detector plane a 9070 degree field of view to be flown…
Diffractive X-ray Telescopes
Gerald K. Skinner
Diffractive X-ray telescopes using zone plates, phase Fresnel lenses, or related optical elements have the potential to provide astronomers with true imaging capability with resolu…
Parasitic Interference in Long Baseline Optical Interferometry: Requirements for Hot Jupiter-like Planet Detection
Alexis Matter, Bruno Lopez, Stéphane Lagarde +4
The observable quantities in optical interferometry, which are the modulus and the phase of the complex visibility, may be corrupted by parasitic fringes superimposed on the genuin…
Science drivers and requirements for an Advanced Technology Large Aperture Space Telescope (ATLAST): Implications for technology development and synergies with other future facilities
Marc Postman, Tom Brown, Kenneth Sembach +11
The Advanced Technology Large-Aperture Space Telescope (ATLAST) is a concept for an 8-meter to 16-meter UVOIR space observatory for launch in the 2025-2030 era. ATLAST will allow a…
Optimal Compression of Floating-point Astronomical Images Without Significant Loss of Information
W. D. Pence, R. L. White, R. Seaman
We describe a compression method for floating-point astronomical images that gives compression ratios of 6 -- 10 while still preserving the scientifically important information in…
Paper II: Calibration of the Swift ultraviolet/optical telescope
A. A. Breeveld, P. A. Curran, E. A. Hoversten +32
The Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) is one of three instruments onboard the Swift observatory. The photometric calibration has been published, and this paper follows up with d…
