The Ingot WFS ON an ELT-like telescope: the project and simulations
Elisa Portaluri, Simone Di Filippo, Valentina Viotto +12
The Ingot WFS represents an innovative and indispensable class of sensors conceived to overcome some limitations due to the LGSs geometry, which is significantly different from the…
The IXPE Instrument Calibration Equipment
Fabio Muleri, Raffaele Piazzolla, Alessandro Di Marco +28
The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer is a mission dedicated to the measurement of X-ray polarization from tens of astrophysical sources belonging to different classes. Expected t…
The Instrument of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Paolo Soffitta, Luca Baldini, Ronaldo Bellazzini +78
While X-ray Spectroscopy, Timing and Imaging have improved verymuch since 1962, when the first astronomical non-solar source was discovered, especially with the launch of Newton/X-…
Design, Construction, and Test of the Gas Pixel Detectors for the IXPE Mission
L. Baldini, M. Barbanera, R. Bellazzini +91
Due to be launched in late 2021, the Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer mission designed to perform polarization measurements in the 2-8 keV band, c…
Speckle statistics in adaptive optics images at visible wavelengths
Marco Stangalini, Fernando Pedichini, Enrico Pinna +11
Residual speckles in adaptive optics (AO) images represent a well-known limitation on the achievement of the contrast needed for faint source detection. Speckles in AO imagery can…
On-sky demonstration of matched filters for wavefront measurements using ELT-scale elongated laser guide stars
A. G. Basden, L. Bardou, D. Bonaccini Calia +18
The performance of adaptive optics systems is partially dependant on the algorithms used within the real-time control system to compute wavefront slope measurements. We demonstrate…
