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.

Pointlike Material Accumulation and Displacement in Azopolymer Thin Films Driven by Spatial Light Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A maskless, SLM‐driven approach enables the deterministic inscription of arbitrary topographical features in azopolymer films by mapping complex vectorial light fields onto local viscoplastic stress. This platform allows for the rapid generation and dynamic erasure of high‐aspect‐ratio micro‐spikes, offering a versatile tool for reconfigurable flat ...

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 ...

Solar surveillance with CLIMSO: instrumentation, database and on-going developments

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2020
CLIMSO is a suite of solar telescopes installed at Pic du Midi observatory in the southwest of France. It consists of two refractors that image the full solar disk in Hα and CaII K, and two coronagraphs that capture the prominences and ejections of ...

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

Jitter sensing and reconstruction from temporal series of solar images: Applications to TuMag

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Images recorded with the Tunable Magnetograph (TuMag) instrument on board the SUNRISE III balloon observatory are affected by temporal contrast fluctuations. These variations are related to high-frequency vibrations (jitter) of the platform that
