Alignment of DECam-like large survey telescope for real-time active optics and error analysis

Optics Communications, 2021
To obtain relatively high imaging quality in the whole field of view and simultaneously create petabytes of data with a high signal-to-noise ratio, the alignment requirements for the dark energy camera (DECam)-like wide field active optics survey ...

Kirkpatrick–Baez active optics system at FERMI: system performance analysis

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, 2019
FERMI is the first and only seeded EUV-SXR free-electron laser (FEL) facility available to users; it operates at Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste (Italy) and it presents five operating endstations.

Active optics strategy for the alignment and operation of the European Solar Telescope

Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2022
The European Solar Telescope (EST) is an on-axis 4.2-meter solar telescope, the largest solar telescope ever built in Europe. While operating, environmental effects, such as gravity, wind buffeting or thermal loads, will generate wavefront errors that ...

Commissioning a laser metrology truss for active optics on the Large Binocular Telescope

Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2022
LBTO, in partnership with GMTO, has been developing a laser-truss-based metrology system for the active alignment of telescope main optical components. Positive initial results convinced LBTO to commence to develop a "pathfinder" integrated operational ...

Rubin Observatory active optics system status

Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2020
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is now under construction on Cerro Pachon in Chile. This ground-based facility is designed to conduct the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), which is a decade-long time-domain optical survey of the night sky. The system

Optical Activity of Biopolymers

Nature, 1969
Theoretical and experimental advances have led to a reassessment of the interpretation of optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism of nucleic acids, proteins and related compounds. The present state of the field is reviewed in this article.

Active Optics for Space Telescopes

Optical Design and Fabrication 2019 (Freeform, OFT), 2019
Active optics has been proposed for application to space telescopes since the mid 1960s since it can help to relax manufacturing tolerances while guaranteeing diffraction-limited image quality, correct for thermal gradients and any errors due to launch ...

Aromaticity and Optical Activity

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2015
The relationship between aromaticity and optical activity is investigated in comparisons of heterocycles with 4n + 2 and 4n π-electrons, in cyclic ketones with and without aromatic resonance structure representations, in tautomers and pericyclic reaction partners in which only one compound of each pair is aromatic, and in partially hydrogenated cyclo ...

Are Lignins Optically Active?

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 1999
The accepted derivation of lignins from non(enzymatically)-controlled radical coupling reactions has been recently challenged, and it is relevant to ascertain unequivocally whether lignins are or are not (as normally assumed) optically active. Two approaches were used. First, DFRC (derivatization followed by reductive cleavage) dimers derived from beta-
