Surface Interactions in Photon Monte Carlo Simulations
J. R. Peterson, D. Valls-Gabaud, A. Dutta +2
We implement a comprehensive simulation of photon surface interactions using a Monte Carlo approach. This is effective in simulating the interaction of light with telescope mirrors…
Forced Measurement of Astronomical Sources at Low Signal to Noise
Anirban Dutta, John R. Peterson, Glenn Sembroski
We propose a modified moment matching algorithm to avoid catastrophic failures for sources with a low signal to noise ratio (SNR). The proposed modifications include a method to el…
Self-Consistent Atmosphere Representation and Interaction in Photon Monte Carlo Simulations
J. R. Peterson, G. Sembroski, A. Dutta +1
We present a self-consistent representation of the atmosphere and implement the interactions of light with the atmosphere using a photon Monte Carlo approach. We compile global cli…
Deformation of Optics for Photon Monte Carlo Simulations
J. R. Peterson, E. Peng, C. J. Burke +2
We develop a comprehensive approach to simulate the deformation of mirrors and lenses due to thermal and mechanical stresses that couples efficiently to photon-based optics simulat…
