Design and Preliminary Ground Experiment for Deployable Sunshade Structures of a Modular Space Telescope [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
On-orbit assembling space telescope (OAST) is one of the most feasible methods to implement a large-scale space telescope. Unlike a monolithic space telescope (such as Hubble Space Telescope, HST) or a deployable space telescope (such as James Webb Space

Debris disk color with the Hubble Space Telescope [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Context. Multiwavelength scattered light imaging of debris disks may inform dust properties including typical size and mineral composition. Existing studies have investigated a small set of individual systems across a variety of imaging instruments and filters, calling for uniform comparison studies to systematically investigate dust properties.

The First Weak-lensing Analysis with the James Webb Space Telescope: SMACS J0723.3–7327

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Utilizing the James Webb Space Telescope Early Release NIRCam Observations, we perform a weak-lensing analysis of the massive galaxy cluster SMACS J0723.3–7327 ( z = 0.39).

PHANGS–JWST First Results: A Combined HST and JWST Analysis of the Nuclear Star Cluster in NGC 628

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We combine archival Hubble Space Telescope and new James Webb Space Telescope imaging data covering the ultraviolet to mid-infrared regime to morphologically analyze the nuclear star cluster (NSC) of NGC 628, a grand-design spiral galaxy.

PACMan2: Next Steps in Proposal Review Management

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
With the start of a new Great Observatories era, there is renewed concern that the demand for these forefront facilities, through proposal pressure, will exceed conventional peer-review management’s capacity for ensuring an unbiased and efficient ...

Attitude Control and Parameter Optimization: A Study on Hubble Space Telescope

open access: yesMeasurement Science Review, 2023
In this work, we build a satellite attitude Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controlled system by using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) parameters as a reference and tune its controller parameters using various tuning methods.

The High-energy Spectrum of the Young Planet Host V1298 Tau

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
V1298 Tau is a young pre-main-sequence star hosting four known exoplanets that are prime targets for transmission spectroscopy with current-generation instruments. This work pieces together observations from the NICER X-ray telescope, the Space Telescope

SKYSURF-4: Panchromatic Hubble Space Telescope All-Sky Surface-brightness Measurement Methods and Results

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The diffuse, unresolved sky provides most of the photons that the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) receives, yet remains poorly understood. The HST Archival Legacy program SKYSURF aims to measure the 0.2–1.6 μ m sky surface brightness (sky-SB) from over 140 ...
