Development and Characterization of a Precisely Adjustable Fiber Polishing Arm [PDF]
The development of bare fiber or air-gapped microlens-fiber coupled Integral Field Units (IFUs) for astronomical applications requires careful treatment of the fiber end-faces (terminations). Previous studies suggest that minimization of fiber end face irregularity leads to better optical performance in terms of the diminishing effect of focal ratio ...

On Atmospheric Retrievals of Exoplanets with Inhomogeneous Terminators [PDF]
The complexity of atmospheric retrieval models is largely data-driven and one-dimensional models have generally been considered adequate with current data quality. However, recent studies have suggested that using 1D models in retrievals can result in anomalously cool terminator temperatures and biased abundance estimates even with existing ...
