The InfraRed Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) for TMT: photometric characterization of anisoplanatic PSFs and testing of PSF-Reconstruction via AIROPA
Nils Rundquist, Shelley A. Wright, Matthias Schoeck +16
The InfraRed Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) is a first-light instrument for the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) that will be used to sample the corrected adaptive optics field by the Nar…
Flowdown of the TMT astrometry error budget(s) to the IRIS design
Matthias Schoeck, David Andersen, John Rogers +9
TMT has defined the accuracy to be achieved for both absolute and differential astrometry in its top-level requirements documents. Because of the complexities of different types of…
Lessons learned from the TMT site testing campaign
T. Travouillon, S. G. Els, R. L. Riddle +2
After a site testing campaign spanning 5 sites over a period of 5 years, the site selection for the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) culminated with the choice of Mauna Kea 13N in Hawa…
Four years of optical turbulence monitoring at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO)
S. G. Els, M. Schoeck, E. Bustos +7
The optical turbulence conditions as measured between 2004 until end of 2008 above Cerro Tololo, their seasonal as well as nocturnal behavior are presented. A comparison with the M…
Thirty Meter Telescope Site Testing VI: Turbulence Profiles
S. G. Els, T. Travouillon, M. Schoeck +5
The results on the vertical distribution of optical turbulence above the five mountains which were investigated by the site testing for the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) are reporte…
Thirty Meter Telescope Site Testing I: Overview
M. Schoeck, S. Els, R. Riddle +15
As part of the conceptual and preliminary design processes of the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT), the TMT site testing team has spent the last five years measuring the atmospheric pr…
