Thermal Characterization of a 6-Positioner, 6.2-mm-Pitch Module for Stage-5 Telescopes
Maxime Rombach, Malak Galal, Jonathan Wei +3
Ensuring thermal stability of robotic fiber positioners is essential for reliable operation in the real environments of Stage-5 telescopes, where temperature variations can influen…
Testing of a 15-Positioner Module Based on the MPS Design for Stage-5 Telescopes
Jonathan Wei, Oliver Pineda Suárez, Malak Galal +6
Assessing the performance metrics of theta-phi micro-robotic positioners is a key step toward understanding their operational behavior and ensuring that they meet the specification…
Prototyping of 6.2-mm-Pitch Fiber Positioner Modules for Stage-V Telescope Instrumentation
Malak Galal, Maxime Rombach, Jonathan Wei +18
Small-pitch populated focal planes are essential enabling technologies for the next generation of highly multiplexed astronomical instruments. As modern astrophysics relies on mass…
Investigations on assembly and coverage for modular focal planes of multiplexed telescopes
Maxime Rombach, Xiangyu Xu, Ricardo Araujo +7
Multiplexed surveys have the ambition to grow larger for the next generation of focal plane instruments. Future projects such as Spec-S5, MUST, and WST have an ever-growing need fo…
