Progress of the design of the 12-m optical, Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST)
P. Dierickx, G. Gausachs, C. Cudennec +16
The Wide-Field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a 12-m class, Alt-Az optical telescope providing two simultaneous foci, 2 degrees and 3 by 3 arc minutes respectively, for Multi-Obj…
MORFEO: Advancing Towards Final Design
Lorenzo Busoni, Guido Agapito, Marco Bonaglia +106
The Multiconjugate adaptive Optics Relay For ELT Observations (MORFEO) is a first-generation adaptive optics module for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), designed to deliver a d…
The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: the SCAO module AIT in France, from the beta flat configuration towards the flat and final configurations
Yann Clénet, Vincent Lapeyrère, Eric Gendron +45
MICADO is the designated ELT first light instrument, a near-infrared imager working at the diffraction limit of the telescope thanks to a SCAO and an MCAO mode. Since summer 2024,…
The MICADO first-light imager for the ELT: first steps of the SCAO system MAIT
Yann Clénet, Eric Gendron, Fabrice Vidal +39
MICADO is the ELT first light instrument, an imager working at the diffraction limit of the telescope thanks to two adaptive optics (AO) modes: a single conjugate one (SCAO), avail…
