Performance of Large-Format Deformable Mirrors Constructed with Hybrid Variable Reluctance Actuators II: Initial Lab Results from FLASH
Rachel Bowens-Rubin, Daren Dillon, Philip M. Hinz +1
Advancements in high-efficiency hybrid variable reluctance (HVR) actuators are an enabling technology for building the next generation of large-format deformable mirrors, including…
Developing Adaptive Secondary Mirror Concepts for the APF and W.M. Keck Observatory Based on HVR Technology
Philip M. Hinz, Rachel Bowens-Rubin, Christoph Baranec +16
An Adaptive secondary mirror (ASM) allows for the integration of adaptive optics (AO) into the telescope itself. Adaptive secondary mirrors, based on hybrid variable reluctance (HV…
A Design Study on Adaptive Primaries for 1-2 Meter Class Telescopes
J. Fowler, Rachel Bowens-Rubin, Philip M. Hinz
Adaptive optics (AO) offers an opportunity to stabilize an image and maximize the spatial resolution achievable by ground based telescopes by removing the distortions due to the at…
