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…
Massive stars with Pollux on LUVOIR
C. Neiner, J. -C. Bouret, C. Evans +1
Many open questions remain about massive stars, for example about their evolution, their wind, and their maximum mass at formation. These issues could be ideally adressed by the Po…
Probing the structure and evolution of active galactic nuclei with the ultraviolet polarimeter POLLUX aboard LUVOIR
F. Marin, S. Charlot, D. Hutsemékers +6
The ultraviolet (UV) polarization spectrum of nearby active galactic nuclei (AGN) is poorly known. The Wisconsin Ultraviolet Photo-Polarimeter Experiment and a handful of instrumen…
The science case for POLLUX, a high-resolution UV spectropolarimeter onboard LUVOIR
Jean-Claude Bouret, Coralie Neiner, Ana I. Gómez de Castro +9
POLLUX is a high-resolution, UV spectropolarimeter proposed for the 15-meter primary mirror option of LUVOIR. The instrument Phase 0 study is supported by the French Space Agency (…
Spectrographs with holographic gratings on freeform surfaces: design approach and application for the LUVOIR mission
Eduard Muslimov, Marc Ferrari, Emmanuel Hugot +5
In the present paper we demonstrate the approach to use a holographic grating on a freeform surface for advanced spectrographs design. On the example POLLUX spectropolarimeter medi…
POLLUX: a UV spectropolarimeter for the LUVOIR space telescope project
Eduard Muslimov, Jean-Claude Bouret, Coralie Neiner +9
The present paper describes the current baseline optical design of POLLUX, a high-resolution spectropolarimeter for the future LUVOIR mission. The instrument will operate in the ul…
