Optical designs for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer Telescope
Will Saunders, Peter Gillingham
Optical designs are presented for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) telescope. The adopted baseline design is a prime focus telescope with a segmented primary of 11.25m ape…
Target allocation yields for massively multiplexed spectroscopic surveys with fibers
Will Saunders, Scott Smedley, Peter Gillingham +3
We present Simulated Annealing fiber-to-target allocation simulations for the proposed DESI and 4MOST massively multiplexed spectroscopic surveys, and for both Poisson and realisti…
Prime focus wide-field corrector designs with lossless atmospheric dispersion correction
Will Saunders, Peter Gillingham, Greg Smith +2
Wide-Field Corrector designs are presented for the Blanco and Mayall telescopes, the CFHT and the AAT. The designs are Terezibh-style, with 5 or 6 lenses, and modest negative optic…
The Fibre Multi-Object Spectrograph (FMOS) for Subaru Telescope
Masahiko Kimura, Toshinori Maihara, Fumihide Iwamuro +39
Fibre Multi-Object Spectrograph (FMOS) is the first near-infrared instrument with a wide field of view capable of acquiring spectra simultaneously from up to 400 objects. It has be…
