  • Design, fabrication, and testing of aluminum mirrors for the cold optics of the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias (IAC) infrared camera
    The Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias infrared camera is intended as a common user instrument for the Cassegrain focus of the Carlos Sanchez Telescope at the Observatorio del Teide. The camera will be equipped with a 256 X 256 InSb array, two filter wheels and a centered diamond turned aluminum optical system working at liquid nitrogen (LN2)

  • Bidimensional spectroscopy with optical fibers at the William Herschel and Nordic Optical Telescopes
    In this communication we describe two optical fiber systems contrived to perform simultaneous bidimensional spectroscopy of extended objects: 2D_FIS and HEXAFLEX II. The main component of 2D_FIS is an optical fiber bundle which links the auxiliary Cassegrain focus of the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope (WHT) with the ISIS spectrograph. HEXAFLEX II

  • An implicit integral method to solve selected radiative transfer problems. 3: Factorization versus linearization
    In view of more general applications, we have developed a new approach to render explicit the temperature both in the source function of the radiative transfer equation and in the constraint of radiative equilibrium. This is a necessary step in the iterative temperature correction when computing stellar atmosphere models. Our method consists of a

  • Active-passive correction of wind buffeting deformation on large thin meniscus mirrors
    This paper presents a solution to correct wind induced deformation on a 8.0 m thin meniscus mirror supported by a system of astatic active supports. The correction scheme is based on an active correction using the force actuators which support the mirror, and a passive rate dependent coupling of the mirror to the cell. The paper identifies the
