The science enabled by a dedicated solar system space telescope
Cindy L. Young, Michael H. Wong, Kunio M. Sayanagi +35
The National Academy Committee on Astrobiology and Planetary Science (CAPS) made a recommendation to study a large/medium-class dedicated space telescope for planetary science, goi…
Architectures and Technologies for a Space Telescope for Solar System Science
Kunio M. Sayanagi, Cindy L. Young, Lynn Bowman +37
We advocate for a mission concept study for a space telescope dedicated to solar system science in Earth orbit. Such a study was recommended by the Committee on Astrobiology and Pl…
Performance of Large Area Picosecond Photo-Detectors (LAPPD)
A. V. Lyashenko, B. W. Adams, M. Aviles +14
We report on performance results achieved for recently produced LAPPDs - largest comercially available planar geometry photodetectors based on microchannel plates. These results in…
Structure and Composition of Pluto's atmosphere from the New Horizons Solar Ultraviolet Occultation
Leslie A. Young, Joshua A. Kammer, Andrew J. Steffl +23
The Alice instrument on NASA's New Horizons spacecraft observed an ultraviolet solar occultation by Pluto's atmosphere on 2015 July 14. The transmission vs. altitude was sensitive…
A Brief Technical History of the Large-Area Picosecond Photodetector (LAPPD) Collaboration
Bernhard W. Adams, Klaus Attenkofer, Mircea Bogdan +38
The Large Area Picosecond PhotoDetector (LAPPD) Collaboration was formed in 2009 to develop large-area photodetectors capable of time resolutions measured in pico-seconds, with acc…
Possible detection of two giant extrasolar planets orbiting the eclipsing polar UZ Fornacis
Stephen B. Potter, Encarni Romero--Colmenero, Gavin Ramsay +11
We present new high-speed, multi-observatory, multi-instrument photometry of the eclipsing polar UZ For in order to measure precise mid-eclipse times with the aim of detecting any…
