Conceptual architecture of the detector infrastructure for WST
A. Meoli, O. Iwert, E. George +5
The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a proposed 12 m wide-field spectroscopic facility combining several multi-object spectrographs. It requires a yet unprecedented numb…
An Analysis of Large Astronomical Detector Controller Systems and Implications for Future ESO Detector Systems
Mathias Richerzhagen, Naidu Bezawada, Sebastian Elias Egner +11
Large astronomical instruments using tens to hundreds of optical or infrared science detectors pose specific challenges for detector control, where, in addition to performance, oth…
System Design of the Newest Generation Detector Controller for ELT and new VLT Instruments
Mathias Richerzhagen, Matthias Seidel, Leander Mehrgan +4
A new detector controller, NGCII, is in development for the first-generation instruments of the ELT as well as new instruments for the VLT. Building on experience with previous ESO…
High contrast at short separation with VLTI/GRAVITY: Bringing Gaia companions to light
N. Pourré, T. O. Winterhalder, J. -B. Le Bouquin +173
Since 2019, GRAVITY has provided direct observations of giant planets and brown dwarfs at separations of down to 95 mas from the host star. Some of these observations have provided…
Detector Systems Engineering for Extremely Large Instruments
Elizabeth M. George, Naidu Bezawada, Derek Ives +22
The scientific detector systems for the ESO ELT first-light instruments, HARMONI, MICADO, and METIS, together will require 27 science detectors: seventeen 2.5 m cutoff H4RG-15 d…
NAOMI: the adaptive optics system of the Auxiliary Telescopes of the VLTI
Woillez J., Abad J. A., Abuter R. +80
The tip-tilt stabilisation system of the 1.8 m Auxiliary Telescopes of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer was never dimensioned for robust fringe tracking, except when atmosph…
