Large Synoptic Survey Telescope: Dark Energy Science Collaboration
LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration
This white paper describes the LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration (DESC), whose goal is the study of dark energy and related topics in fundamental physics with data from the La…
The metrology cameras for Subaru PFS and FMOS
Shiang-Yu Wang, Yen-Shan Hu, Chi-Hung Yan +11
The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) is a new multi-fiber spectrograph on Subaru telescope. PFS will cover around 1.4 degree diameter field with ~2400 fibers. To ensure precise posit…
Prime Focus Spectrograph - Subaru's future -
Hajime Sugai, Hiroshi Karoji, Naruhisa Takato +51
The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) of the Subaru Measurement of Images and Redshifts (SuMIRe) project has been endorsed by Japanese community as one of the main future instruments…
Subaru weak-lensing measurement of a z = 0.81 cluster discovered by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope Survey
Hironao Miyatake, Atsushi J. Nishizawa, Masahiro Takada +25
We present a Subaru weak lensing measurement of ACT-CL J0022.2-0036, one of the most luminous, high-redshift (z=0.81) Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) clusters discovered in the 268 deg^2 e…
Conceptual Design of the Coronagraphic High Angular Resolution Imaging Spectrograph (CHARIS) for the Subaru Telescope
Mary Anne Peters, Tyler Groff, N. Jeremy Kasdin +14
Recent developments in high-contrast imaging techniques now make possible both imaging and spectroscopy of planets around nearby stars. We present the conceptual design of the Coro…
Scientific Design of a High Contrast Integral Field Spectrograph for the Subaru Telescope
Michael W. McElwain, Timothy D. Brandt, Markus Janson +18
Ground-based telescopes equipped with adaptive-optics (AO) systems and specialized science cameras are now capable of directly detecting extrasolar planets. We present the expected…
