Recent results and perspectives for precision astrometry and photometry with adaptive optics [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2010
Large ground-based telescopes equipped with adaptive optics (AO) systems have ushered in a new era of highresolution infrared photometry and astrometry. Relative astrometric accuracies of

First time-series optical photometry from Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2008
Beating the Earth's day-night cycle is mandatory for long and continuous time-series photometry and had been achieved with either large ground-based networks of observatories at different geographic longitudes or when conducted from space. A third possibility is offered by a polar location with astronomically-qualified site characteristics. Aims.

Stellar Photometry with the Optical Monitors [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1993
AbstractThe Optical Monitors are small optical telescopes which will fly on board of the X-ray satellites SPECTRUM-X-GAMMA (JET-X experiment) and XMM. Their main scientific applications are the simultaneous observations (imaging) in the optical and UV band of the optical counterparts of X-ray sources, with limiting magnitudes of aboutmv=22(JET-X) and ...

Rationale for the Choice of the Ellipsoidal Reflector Parameters for Biomedical Photometers

open access: yesПриборы и методы измерений, 2021
Biomedical photometersʼ information-measuring systems with ellipsoidal reflectors have acceptable results in determining of biological tissues optical properties in the visible and near-infrared spectral range. These photometers make it possible to study

Accurate photometry with adaptive optics in the presence of anisoplanatic effects with a sparsely sampled PSF [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Anisoplanatic effects can cause significant systematic photometric uncertainty in the analysis of dense stellar fields observed with adaptive optics. Program packages have been developed for a spatially variable PSF, but they require that a sufficient ...

REFERENCE-LESS DETECTION, ASTROMETRY, AND PHOTOMETRY OF FAINT COMPANIONS WITH ADAPTIVE OPTICS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We propose a complete framework for the detection, astrometry, and photometry of faint companions from a sequence of adaptive optics (AO) corrected short exposures.

The photometry of optical instruments [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the Optical Society, 1922
The use of a portable surface-brightness photometer of the polarisation type for the measurement of the fraction of the incident light transmitted by an optical instrument or reflected by a mirror or system of mirrors, and for the measurement of the relative brightness of different parts of the field of view of an optical instrument, is described.
