Euclid preparation. XXIX. Water ice in spacecraft part I: The physics of ice formation and contamination

Euclid Collaboration, M. Schirmer, K. Thürmer +218

Molecular contamination is a well-known problem in space flight. Water is the most common contaminant and alters numerous properties of a cryogenic optical system. Too much ice mea…

Adaptive Semi-linear Inversion of Strong Gravitational Lens Imaging

James Nightingale, Simon Dye

We present a new pixelized method for the inversion of gravitationally lensed extended source images which we term adaptive semi-linear inversion (SLI). At the heart of the method…
