Detector System Challenges of the Wide-field Spectroscopic Survey Telescope (WST)
Roland Bacon, Martin M. Roth, Paola Amico +2
The wide-field spectroscopic survey telescope (WST) is proposed to become the next large optical/near infrared facility for the European Southern Observatory (ESO) once the Extreme…
A brief History of Image Sensors in the Optical
Martin M. Roth
Image sensors, most notably the Charge Coupled Device (CCD), have revolutionized observational astronomy as perhaps the most important innovation after photography. Since the 50th…
The Effect of Superpositions on the Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function
Owen Chase, Robin Ciardullo, Martin Roth +1
Planetary nebula (PN) surveys in systems beyond ~10 Mpc often find high-excitation, point-like sources with [O III] fluxes greater than the apparent bright-end cutoff of th…
Astrophotonics: photonic integrated circuits for astronomical instrumentation
Martin M. Roth, Kalaga Madhav, Andreas Stoll +6
Photonic Integrated Circuits (PIC) are best known for their important role in the telecommunication sector, e.g. high speed communication devices in data centers. However, PIC also…
MUSE crowded field 3D spectroscopy in NGC 300 : IV. Planetary nebula luminosity function
Azlizan A. Soemitro, Martin M. Roth, Peter M. Weilbacher +5
We perform a deep survey of planetary nebulae (PNe) in the spiral galaxy NGC 300 to construct its planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF). We aim to derive the distance using t…
The MUSE Hubble Ultra Deep Field surveys: Data release II
Roland Bacon, Jarle Brinchmann, Simon Conseil +30
We present the second data release of the MUSE Hubble UDF surveys, which includes the deepest spectroscopic survey ever performed. The MUSE data, with their 3D content, amazing dep…
