Next-generation telescopes with curved focal surface for ultra-low surface brightness surveys
Simona Lombardo, Eduard Muslimov, Gerard Lemaître +1
In spite of major advances in both ground- and space-based instrumentation, the ultra-low-surface brightness universe (ULSB) still remains a largely unexplored volume in observatio…
Adaptive optics with programmable Fourier-based wavefront sensors: a spatial light modulator approach to the LOOPS testbed
Pierre Janin-Potiron, Vincent Chambouleyron, Lauren Schatz +10
Wavefront sensors encode phase information of an incoming wavefront into an intensity pattern that can be measured on a camera. Several kinds of wavefront sensors (WFS) are used in…
Curved detectors for astronomical applications:characterization results on different samples
Lombardo Simona, Behaghel Thibault, Chambion Bertrand +8
Due to the increasing dimension, complexity and cost of the future astronomical surveys, new technologies enabling more compact and simpler systems are required. The development of…
Active optics in astronomy - Freeform mirror for the MESSIER telescope proposal
Gerard Lemaitre, Pascal Vola, Eduard Muslimov
Active optics techniques in astronomy provide high imaging quality. This paper is dedicated to highly deformable active optics that can generate non-axisymmetric aspheric surfaces-…
