Towards High-Throughput Visible Photonic Lanterns for the EMARCOT Project
Abani Shankar Nayak, Julius Goehring, Marina Centenera-Merino +14
Photonic EMARCOT is an innovative project involving Spanish, German and Australian research institutes that aims to integrate multiple Optical Tube Assemblies (OTAs) using photonic…
Demonstration of a multimode-to-multimode photonic lantern for astronomy
Marina Centenera-Merino, Andrew Ross-Adams, Christopher Betters +14
Photonic lanterns have been widely used in astronomy as low-loss multiplexing devices, typically coupling light from a multimode input into several single-mode outputs. In this wor…
Validation and extension of the PAWS Zemax model as a first step in the development of a Compact Arrayed Waveguide Stacked Multi-Object Spectrograph (CAWSMOS)
Fabienne Mangelsdorff, Andreas Stoll, Lars Zimmermann +4
The linear size of a bulk optical astronomical spectrograph scales with the diameter of the primary mirror of the corresponding telescope. As modern telescopes continue to increase…
