Structural, thermal and optical tolerance analysis of SHARP, a near infrared spectrograph for next generation telescope
H. Mahmoodzadeh, P. Saracco, I. DI Antonio +15
The design and verification of cryogenic near-infrared spectrographs require rigorous multidisciplinary analyses to ensure optical performance under realistic operational condition…
SHARP -- A spectrograph proposal to fully exploit ELT capabilities and look beyond JWST
P. Saracco, P. Conconi, C. Arcidiacono +47
The Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs), with their large apertures and cutting-edge Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) systems, promise to deliver data that is both sharper and…
SHARP: Beyond JWST -- Revealing the galaxy birth and growth with the resolution of the ELT
P. Saracco, P. Conconi, C. Arcidiacono +37
A deep understanding of the life-cycle of galaxies, particularly those of high mass, requires clarifying the mechanisms that regulate star formation (SF) and its abrupt shutdown (q…
Study of Lobster and Kirkpatrick-Baez Designs for a Small Mission dedicated to Gravitational Wave Transient Localization
John Rankin, Sergio Campana, Giovanni Pareschi +5
The localization of X-ray counterparts to gravitational wave events requires a telescope with accurate localization capability in a field of view comparable to the region constrain…
Conceptual Opto-Mechanical design of SHARP: a near-infrared multi-mode spectrograph conceived for the next-generation telescopes
H. Mahmoodzadeh, P. Saracco, P. Conconi +18
The next generation of Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs), with their wide apertures and advanced Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) systems, will provide unprecedented sharp an…
