VLTI Unit Telescope coudé train vibration control upgrade for GRAVITY+
Romain Laugier, Julien Woillez, Denis Defrère +15
Scaling up interferometry to 8m collectors should smooth-out the optical piston perturbations and allow a slow fringe tracker to obtain high precision correction on faint targets.…
The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: off-axis performance of PSF reconstruction
Matteo Simioni, Daniel Jodlbauer, Carmelo Arcidiacono +14
The highest scientific return, for adaptive optics (AO) observations, is achieved with a reliable reconstruction of the PSF. This is especially true for MICADO@ELT. In this present…
Euclid: Early Release Observations -- Programme overview and pipeline for compact- and diffuse-emission photometry
J. -C. Cuillandre, E. Bertin, M. Bolzonella +260
The Euclid ERO showcase Euclid's capabilities in advance of its main mission, targeting 17 astronomical objects, from galaxy clusters, nearby galaxies, globular clusters, to star-f…
Euclid. III. The NISP Instrument
Euclid Collaboration, K. Jahnke, W. Gillard +434
The Near-Infrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP) on board the Euclid satellite provides multiband photometry and R>=450 slitless grism spectroscopy in the 950-2020nm wavelength…
Euclid. IV. The NISP Calibration Unit
Euclid Collaboration, F. Hormuth, K. Jahnke +332
The near-infrared calibration unit (NI-CU) on board Euclid's Near-Infrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP) is the first astronomical calibration lamp based on light-emitting dio…
Euclid. II. The VIS Instrument
Euclid Collaboration, M. S. Cropper, A. Al-Bahlawan +432
This paper presents the specification, design, and development of the Visible Camera (VIS) on the ESA Euclid mission. VIS is a large optical-band imager with a field of view of 0.5…
Upgrading the GRAVITY fringe tracker for GRAVITY+: Tracking the white light fringe in the non-observable Optical Path Length state-space
M. Nowak, S. Lacour, R. Abuter +35
Aims. As part of the ongoing GRAVITY+ upgrade of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer infrastructure, we aim to improve the performance of the GRAVITY Fringe-Tracker, and to ena…
The GRAVITY+ Project: Towards All-sky, Faint-Science, High-Contrast Near-Infrared Interferometry at the VLTI
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, :, Roberto Abuter +134
The GRAVITY instrument has been revolutionary for near-infrared interferometry by pushing sensitivity and precision to previously unknown limits. With the upgrade of GRAVITY and th…
GRAVITY+ Wide: Towards hundreds of z 2 AGN
A. Drescher, M. Fabricius, T. Shimizu +34
As part of the GRAVITY project, the near-infrared beam combiner GRAVITY and the VLTI are currently undergoing a series of significant upgrades to further improve the performa…
GRAVITY faint: reducing noise sources in GRAVITY with a fast metrology attenuation system
F. Widmann, S. Gillessen, T. Ott +28
With the upgrade from GRAVITY to GRAVITY the instrument will evolve into an all-sky interferometer that can observe faint targets, such as high redshift AGN. Observing the fain…
First Light for GRAVITY Wide: Large Separation Fringe Tracking for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, :, R. Abuter +114
GRAVITY+ is the upgrade of GRAVITY and the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) with wide-separation fringe tracking, new adaptive optics, and laser guide stars on all four 8…
The Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) Survey Design, Reductions, and Detections
Karl Gebhardt, Erin Mentuch Cooper, Robin Ciardullo +60
We describe the survey design, calibration, commissioning, and emission-line detection algorithms for the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX). The goal of HETDEX…
