POLLUX: a UV spectropolarimeter for the LUVOIR space telescope project
Eduard Muslimov, Jean-Claude Bouret, Coralie Neiner +9
The present paper describes the current baseline optical design of POLLUX, a high-resolution spectropolarimeter for the future LUVOIR mission. The instrument will operate in the ul…
Combining freeform optics and curved detectors for wide field imaging: a polynomial approach over squared aperture
Eduard Muslimov, Emmanuel Hugot, Wilfried Jahn +5
In the recent years a significant progress was achieved in the field of design and fabrication of optical systems based on freeform optical surfaces. They provide a possibility to…
Prime Focus Spectrograph for the Subaru telescope: massively multiplexed optical and near-infrared fiber spectrograph
Hajime Sugai, Naoyuki Tamura, Hiroshi Karoji +81
The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) is an optical/near-infrared multifiber spectrograph with 2394 science fibers distributed across a 1.3-deg diameter field of view at the Subaru 8.…
Active optics for high-dynamic variable curvature mirrors
Emmanuel Hugot, Marc Ferrari, Gerard R. Lemaitre +5
Variable curvature mirrors of large amplitude are designed by using finite element analysis. The specific case studied reaches at least a 800 μm sag with an optical quality better…
Optical Design of the SuMIRe PFS Spectrograph
Sandrine Pascal, Sebastien Vives, Robert Barkhouser +1
The SuMIRe Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS), developed for the 8-m class SUBARU telescope, will consist of four identical spectrographs, each receiving 600 fibers from a 2394 fiber r…
The near infrared camera for the Subaru Prime Focus Spectrograph
Stephen A. Smee, James E. Gunn, Mirek Golebiowski +10
We present the detailed design of the near infrared camera for the SuMIRe (Subaru Measurement of Images and Redshifts) Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) being developed for the Subaru…
