Exoplanet Search and Characterization with the Proposed POET Canadian Space Mission
S. Metchev, J. Rowe, P. Miles-Páez +20
The Photometric Observations of Exoplanet Transits (POET) is a proposed micro-satellite mission dedicated to the characterization and discovery of transiting exoplanets. POET has b…
Twinkle -- a small satellite spectroscopy mission for the next phase of exoplanet science
Ian Stotesbury, Billy Edwards, Jean-Francois Lavigne +35
With a focus on off-the-shelf components, Twinkle is the first in a series of cost competitive small satellites managed and financed by Blue Skies Space Ltd. The satellite is based…
Adaptive optics benefit for quantum key distribution uplink from ground to a satellite
Christopher J. Pugh, Jean-Francois Lavigne, Jean-Philippe Bourgoin +2
For quantum communications, the use of Earth-orbiting satellites to extend distances has gained significant attention in recent years, exemplified in particular by the launch of th…
SITELLE: An Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer for the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope
Laurent Drissen, Thomas Martin, Laurie Rousseau-Nepton +11
We present an overview of SITELLE, an Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer (iFTS) available at the 3.6-meter Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. SITELLE is a Michelson-type interfero…
Improved Calibration of Near-Infrared Spectra by Using Ensembles of Neural Network Models
A. Ukil, J. Bernasconi, H. Braendle +2
IR or near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is a method used to identify a compound or to analyze the composition of a material. Calibration of NIR spectra refers to the use of the spec…
