First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. III. Data Processing and Calibration [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
We present the calibration and reduction of Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) 1.3 mm radio wavelength observations of the supermassive black hole candidate at the center of the radio galaxy M87 and the quasar 3C 279, taken during the 2017 April 5–11 ...

L’observatoire de Juvisy-sur-Orge, l’« univers d’un chercheur » à sauvegarder

open access: yesIn Situ, 2017
In 1882, Camille Flammarion was given a property at Juvisy-sur-Orge by one of his admirers. He transformed the house into an astronomical observatory and installed what was for its day advanced scientific equipment.

The Swift X-Ray Telescope [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Optics + Photonics, 1999
he Swift Gamma-Ray Explorer is designed to make prompt multiwavelength observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and GRB afterglows. The X-ray telescope (XRT) enables Swift to determine GRB positions with a few arcseconds accuracy within 100 s of the burst

Hexapod Design For All-Sky Sidereal Tracking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we describe a hexapod-based telescope mount system intended to provide sidereal tracking for the Fly's Eye Camera project -- an upcoming moderate, 21"/pixel resolution all-sky survey. By exploiting such a kind of meter-sized telescope mount,

Project of the Large Solar Telescope with mirror 3 m in diameter

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2020
One of the most important problems of modern solar physics is the observation of the small-scale structure of the solar atmosphere at various heights (including the chromosphere and corona) in different spectral lines.

Extragalactic HI Surveys at Arecibo: the Future [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Starting in the 1970s, the Arecibo 305m telescope has made seminal contributions in the field of extragalactic spectroscopy. With the Gregorian upgrade completed in the late 1990s, the telescope acquired a field of view.

First M87 Event Horizon Telescope Results. II. Array and Instrumentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) array that comprises millimeter- and submillimeter-wavelength telescopes separated by distances comparable to the diameter of the Earth. At a nominal operating wavelength of ~

Plans for a 10-m Submillimeter-wave Telescope at the South Pole [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
A 10 meter diameter submillimeter-wave telescope has been proposed for the NSF Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. Current evidence indicates that the South Pole is the best submillimeter-wave telescope site among all existing or proposed ground-based ...

Retracted: Can the chemical industry solve the climate change?On the role of human energy production, renewable energies, and the potential of chemistry as a solution provider

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView., 2023
Let us consider an alternative perspective on climate change: The sum of solar radiation and heat generated by human activity result in a net energy input of 1.96 times that of the Sun on the Earth's surface. The expanding global population is expected to exacerbate this issue. Potential solutions are proposed, including replacement and heat recycling.
