CASTLE: performances and science cases

S. Lombardo, F. Prada, E. Hugot +23

We present here the Calar Alto Schmidt-Lemaitre Telescope (CASTLE) concept, a technology demonstrator for curved detectors, that will be installed at the Calar Alto Observatory (Sp…

Next-generation telescopes with curved focal surface for ultra-low surface brightness surveys

Simona Lombardo, Eduard Muslimov, Gerard Lemaître +1

In spite of major advances in both ground- and space-based instrumentation, the ultra-low-surface brightness universe (ULSB) still remains a largely unexplored volume in observatio…

Active optics in astronomy - Freeform mirror for the MESSIER telescope proposal

Gerard Lemaitre, Pascal Vola, Eduard Muslimov

Active optics techniques in astronomy provide high imaging quality. This paper is dedicated to highly deformable active optics that can generate non-axisymmetric aspheric surfaces-…

Active Optics in Astonomy - Modeling of freeform deformable substrates - FIREBall and MESSIER

Gerard R. Lemaitre

Active optics techniques on large telescopes and astronomical instrumentations provide high imaging quality. For ground-based astronomy, the co-addition of adaptive optics again in…

Design and modelling of spectrographs with holographic gratings on freeform surfaces

Eduard R. Muslimov, Marc Ferrari, Emmanuel Hugot +6

In the present paper we demonstrate the approach of using a holographic grating on a freeform surface for advanced spectrographs design. We discuss the surface and groove pattern d…

Design of optical systems with toroidal curved detectors

Eduard Muslimov, Emmanuel Hugot, Marc Ferrari +4

We consider using toroidal curved detectors to improve the performance of imaging optical systems. We demonstrate that some optical systems have an anamorphic field curvature. We c…
