The Large Millimeter Telescope
2007This paper describes the current status of the Large Millimeter Telescope (LMT), the near-term plans for the telescope and the initial suite of instrumentation. The LMT is a bi-national collaboration between Mexico and the USA, led by the Instituto Nacional de Astrofisica, Optica y Electronica (INAOE) and the University of Massachusetts at Amherst ...

On the design of large telescopes
Vistas in Astronomy, 1960Abstract The article discusses some aspects of telescope engineering which are being thrown into prominence by modern trends. The difficulties due to seeing are briefly mentioned, after which follows a discussion of optical alignment problems including the guiding of a Schmidt Telescope.

Journal of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, 1961
Conventional methods can no longer satisfy many observational requirements in radio astronomy. New principles are being applied in a range of instruments designed for specific purposes; some of these are discussed and contrasted in this article, which is based on a lecture given at an Ordinary Meeting at Savoy Place on the 27th October 1960.

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2007
The Large Area Telescope (LAT), one of two instruments on the Gamma‐ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST) mission, is an imaging, wide field‐of‐view, high‐energy pair‐conversion telescope, covering the energy range from ∼20 MeV to more than 300 GeV. The LAT is being built by an international collaboration with contributions from space agencies, high ...

The UK Large Telescope project
Astrophysics and Space Science, 1989The current status and the organization of the UK Large Telescope programme are summarized. Some scientific and design issues are discussed on the basis of work done for the SERC Large Telescope Panel report. A national Phase A programme is now underway addressing more detailed aspects of these questions.
