Phase-shift mask fabrication at micrometric scale by ion-exchange in glass for astronomical wavefront sensors [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
Photolithography combined with ion-exchange in glass is a well-known technology that can be applied to develop many different optical devices. In this work, we present the complete procedure to generate small circular phase-shift masks with diameters of ...

Demonstration of a near-IR line-referenced electro-optical laser frequency comb for precision radial velocity measurements in astronomy

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
An important technique for discovering and characterizing planets beyond our solar system relies upon measurement of weak Doppler shifts in the spectra of host stars induced by the influence of orbiting planets. A recent advance has been the introduction

Optical design and active optics methods in astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesOptical Review, 2013
Optical designs for astronomy involve implementation of active optics and adaptive optics from X-ray to the infrared. Developments and results of active optics methods for telescopes, spectrographs and coronagraph planet finders are presented. The high accuracy and remarkable smoothness of surfaces generated by active optics methods also allow ...

Big Data Research Infrastructure Collaboration Toward the SKA (BRICSKA)

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
Astronomy is entering an era of mega-data that will render conventional research methods as well as data and visual analytics tools ineffective. The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) drives one of the most significant big data challenges of the next decades ...

Title advances in optical fabrication for astronomy

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
The fabrication of precision optical surfaces has undergone a revolution in recent years. The first purpose of this paper is to present case studies of novel optical designs not previously published, that utilize complex, or ‘freeform’, surfaces.

Searching for magnetic white dwarfs in LAMOST DR10

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Aims. Magnetic white dwarfs (MWDs) are key to understanding the origin and evolution of magnetic fields in compact stars. While large spectroscopic surveys such as SDSS have greatly expanded the known sample, the potential of LAMOST has not yet been ...
