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…
Thermal Noise Reduction in Ternary Optical Coatings: From Ti::GeO-Based Ternary Systems to High Index Materials
Vincenzo Pierro, Guerino Avallone, Jessica Steinlechner +11
Minimizing coating thermal noise is crucial for enhancing gravitational wave detector sensitivity, with a target Amplitude Spectral Density Reduction Factor (ASD RF) of relat…
Comparison of arm cavity optical losses for the two wavelengths of the Einstein Telescope gravitational wave detector
Maxime Le Jean, Jerome Degallaix, David Hofman +8
A new generation of gravitational wave detectors is currently being designed with the likely use of a different laser wavelength compared to current instruments. The estimation of…
TiO2 doping effect on reflective coating mechanical loss for gravitational wave detection at low temperature
Yukino Mori, Yota Nakayama, Kazuhiro Yamamoto +6
We measured the mechanical loss of a dielectric multilayer reflective coating (ion-beam-sputtered SiO2 and Ta2O5) with and without TiO2 on sapphire disks between 6 and 77 K. The me…
Progress in the measurement and reduction of thermal noise in optical coatings for gravitational-wave detectors
Massimo Granata, Alex Amato, Gianpietro Cagnoli +8
Coating thermal noise is a fundamental limit for precision experiments based on optical and quantum transducers. In this review, after a brief overview of the techniques for coatin…
The BMV experiment : a novel apparatus to study the propagation of light in a transverse magnetic field
Remy Battesti, Benoit Pinto Da Souza, Sebastien Batut +11
In this paper, we describe in detail the BMV (Biréfringence Magnétique du Vide) experiment, a novel apparatus to study the propagation of light in a transverse magnetic field. It i…
