Integrated Laboratory Demonstrations of Multi-Object Adaptive Optics on a Simulated 10-Meter Telescope at Visible Wavelengths [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
One important frontier for astronomical adaptive optics (AO) involves methods such as Multi-Object AO and Multi-Conjugate AO that have the potential to give a significantly larger field of view than conventional AO techniques.

A Novel Method to Improve the Estimation of Ocean Tide Loading Displacements for K1 and K2 Components with GPS Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The accurate estimation of ocean tide loading displacements is essential and necessary for geodesy, oceanic and geophysical studies. It is common knowledge that K1 and K2 tidal constituents estimated from Global Positioning System (GPS) observations are ...

Mueller Matrix Parameters for Radio Telescopes and their Observational Determination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Modern digital crosscorrelators permit the simultaneous measurement of all four Stokes parameters. However, the results must be calibrated to correct for the polarization transfer function of the receiving system. The transfer function for any device can

On the noise-resolution duality, Heisenberg uncertainty and Shannon's information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Several variations of the Heisenberg uncertainty inequality are derived on the basis of "noise-resolution duality" recently proposed by the authors. The same approach leads to a related inequality that provides an upper limit for the information capacity

Galactic rotation curves in modified gravity with non-minimal coupling between matter and geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We investigate the possibility that the behavior of the rotational velocities of test particles gravitating around galaxies can be explained in the framework of modified gravity models with non-minimal matter-geometry coupling. Generally, the dynamics of

Long-term analysis of clear nights using satellite data considering astronomical sites in western China [PDF]

open access: yesResearch in Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2020
Abstract A large ground-based optical/infrared telescope is being planned for a world-class astronomical site in China. The cloud-free night percentage is the primary meteorological consideration for evaluating candidate sites. The data from GMS and NOAA satellites and the MODIS instrument were utilized in this research, covering the ...

Mortality during Transport of Pigs Subjected to Long Journeys: A Study in a Large European Abattoir

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2022
To date, especially in Europe, few studies have analysed the implications of long journeys on pig welfare and economic losses, expressed in terms of transport mortality.

Out-Of-Focus Holography at the Green Bank Telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We describe phase-retrieval holography measurements of the 100-m diameter Green Bank Telescope using astronomical sources and an astronomical receiver operating at a wavelength of 7 mm.

Astronomical observation tasks short-term scheduling using PDDS algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Computing, 2016
A concept of the ground-based optical astronomical observations efficiency is considered in this paper. We believe that a telescope efficiency can be increased by properly allocating observation tasks with respect to the current environment state and probability to obtain the data with required properties under the current conditions.

Automatic Classification of Spectra with IEF-SCNN

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
Telescopes such as the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey have produced an extensive collection of spectra, challenging the feasibility of manual classification in terms of accuracy and efficiency.
