Optics for Nano-Satellite X-Ray Monitor

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2015
The Schmidt lobster eye design for a grazing incidence X-ray optics provides a field of view of the order of many degrees, for this reason it can be a convenient approach for the construction of space X-ray monitors.

Modular and Stereoselective Synthesis of Cyclobutane β‐Amino Alcohols

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Late‐stage functionalization and photoisomerization of 1,2‐azaborine leads to a general strategy for the synthesis of diversely substituted cyclobutane β‐amino alcohols. The relative stereochemistry of the resulting products is unambiguously defined by the stereospecific and stereoselective nature of the photoisomerization‐hydrogenation‐oxidation ...

The Planck Telescope

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2002
In this paper we present an overview of the Telescope designed for ESA's mission dedicated to map the Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies and Polarization. Two instruments, LFI and HFI, operate in an overall frequency range between 25 and 900 GHz and share the focal region of the 1.5 meter optimized telescope.

Laser guide stars and turbulence profiling for extremely large telescopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The next generation of ground based telescopes, the so-called extremely large telescopes, will offer a significant leap in sensitivity and resolution compared to current telescopes. They also present a range of technical challenges.

Gravitational deformation of ring-focus antennas for VGOS: first investigations at the Onsala twin telescopes project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The receiving properties of radio telescopes used in geodetic and astrometric very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) depend on the surface quality and stability of the main reflector.

Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

CLEAN and multiscale CLEAN for STIX in Solar Orbiter

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
CLEAN is a well-established deconvolution approach to Fourier imaging at radio wavelengths and hard X-ray energies. One of the main limitations of CLEAN for hard X-ray imaging is that it requires a final convolution step by means of a convolution kernel ...
