Towards Realistic Modeling of the Astrometric Capabilities of MCAO Systems: Detecting an Intermediate Mass Black Hole with MAVIS
Stephanie Monty, Francois Rigaut, Richard McDermid +9
Accurate astrometry is a key deliverable for the next generation of multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) systems. The MCAO Visible Imager and Spectrograph (MAVIS) is being design…
First demonstration of OH suppression in a high efficiency near-infrared spectrograph
S. C. Ellis, J. Bland-Hawthorn, J. S. Lawrence +21
Ground-based near-infrared astronomy is severely hampered by the forest of atmospheric emission lines resulting from the rovibrational decay of OH molecules in the upper atmosphere…
4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals
R. S. de Jong, O. Agertz, A. Agudo Berbel +335
We introduce the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), a new high-multiplex, wide-field spectroscopic survey facility under development for the four-metre-class Vis…
NAIR: Novel Astronomical Instrumentation through photonic Reformatting
Robert J. Harris, Jan Tepper, John J. Davenport +11
The project "Novel Astronomical Instrumentation through photonic Reformatting" is a DFG-funded collaboration to exploit the recognized potential of photonics solutions for a radica…
Multicore fibre photonic lanterns for precision radial velocity science
Itandehui Gris-Sánchez, Dionne M. Haynes, Katjana Ehrlich +2
Envisioning more compact and cost accessible astronomical instruments is now possible with existing photonic technologies like specialty optical fibres, photonic lanterns and ultra…
4MOST - 4m Multi Object Spectroscopic Telescope
Eric Depagne, the 4MOST consortium
4MOST (4m Multi Object Spectroscopic Telescope) is a spectroscopic facility that will be installed on ESO's VISTA around 2020. The science rationale of this facility are to be foun…
4MOST - 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope
Roelof S. de Jong, Olga Bellido-Tirado, Cristina Chiappini +82
The 4MOST consortium is currently halfway through a Conceptual Design study for ESO with the aim to develop a wide-field (>3 square degree, goal >5 square degree), high-multiplex (…
