Expectations for Astrometry with the Hubble Space Telescope [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1990
The Hubble Space Telescope, a large optical instrument having an aperture of 2.4 meters and a length of 8.8 meters has been developed by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration in cooperation with the European Space Agency. The Space Shuttle will be used to place the telescope in orbit.

The effect of the impact of comet Shoemaker Levy‐9 on Jupiter's aurorae [PDF]

, 1995
We present infrared spectra and images of the jovian aurorae taken at wavelengths sensitive to the H-3(+) molecular ion during the period around the impact of Comet Shoemaker Levy-9.

PACMan2: Next Steps in Proposal Review Management

The 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

Measurement 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.

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

Sensors
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

A statistical analysis of the location and width of Saturn's southern auroras [PDF]

, 2006
peer reviewedA selection of twenty-two Hubble Space Telescope images of Saturn's ultraviolet auroras obtained during 1997-2004 has been analysed to determine the median location and width of the auroral oval, and their variability.

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

The 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

Proper Motions of Jets on the Kiloparsec Scale: New Results with HST

Galaxies, 2017
The Hubble Space Telescope recently celebrated 25 years of operation. Some of the first images of extragalactic optical jets were taken by HST in the mid-1990s; with time baselines on the order of 20 years and state-of-the-art astrometry techniques, we ...

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

The 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 ...

Geometric Characterization of LEO–GEO Inter‐Satellite Links for Bidirectional Communications

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Incorporating geosynchronous Earth orbit (GEO) and low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites can extend communication services far beyond the reach of terrestrial infrastructure. A key enabler of such architectures is the establishment of inter‐satellite links (ISLs) between LEOs and GEOs to support bidirectional communications.
