Detailed Design of a Deployable Tertiary Mirror for the Keck I Telescope
J. Xavier Prochaska, Chris Ratliff, Jerry Cabak +16
Motivated by the ever increasing pursuit of science with the transient sky (dubbed Time Domain Astronomy or TDA), we are fabricating and will commission a new deployable tertiary m…
ShaneAO: wide science spectrum adaptive optics system for the Lick Observatory
Donald Gavel, Renate Kupke, Daren Dillon +14
A new high-order adaptive optics system is now being commissioned at the Lick Observatory Shane 3-meter telescope in California. This system uses a high return efficiency sodium be…
Swimming with ShARCS: Comparison of On-sky Sensitivity With Model Predictions for ShaneAO on the Lick Observatory 3-meter Telescope
Srikar Srinath, Rosalie McGurk, Constance Rockosi +10
The Lick Observatory's Shane 3-meter telescope has been upgraded with a new infrared instrument (ShARCS - Shane Adaptive optics infraRed Camera and Spectrograph) and dual-deformabl…
Commissioning ShARCS: the Shane Adaptive optics infraRed Camera-Spectrograph for the Lick Observatory 3-m telescope
Rosalie McGurk, Constance Rockosi, Donald Gavel +16
We describe the design and first-light early science performance of the Shane Adaptive optics infraRed Camera-Spectrograph (ShARCS) on Lick Observatory's 3-m Shane telescope. Desig…
APF - The Lick Observatory Automated Planet Finder
Steven S. Vogt, Matthew Radovan, Robert Kibrick +45
The Automated Planet Finder (APF) is a facility purpose-built for the discovery and characterization of extrasolar planets through high-cadence Doppler velocimetry of the reflex ba…
