Structural, thermal and optical tolerance analysis of SHARP, a near infrared spectrograph for next generation telescope
H. Mahmoodzadeh, P. Saracco, I. DI Antonio +15
The design and verification of cryogenic near-infrared spectrographs require rigorous multidisciplinary analyses to ensure optical performance under realistic operational condition…
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…
Direct Imaging Discovery of Giant Exoplanet Pictoris d: A Decade-Long Game of Hide-and-Seek
Ben J. Sutlieff, Markus J. Bonse, Valentin Christiaens +94
We report the direct imaging discovery of a third exoplanet in the Pictoris system. We detect Pictoris d ( Pic d) in non-coronagraphic observations obtained with VLT/ERI…
SHARP -- A spectrograph proposal to fully exploit ELT capabilities and look beyond JWST
P. Saracco, P. Conconi, C. Arcidiacono +47
The Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs), with their large apertures and cutting-edge Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) systems, promise to deliver data that is both sharper and…
