Journal ArticleDOI

The Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope – Observatory Overview

TL;DR: The National Science Foundation's Daniel K. Inouye solar telescope (DKIST) as discussed by the authors provides the highest-resolution observations of the Sun ever achieved with a 4-m aperture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wavelength-diverse polarization modulators for Stokes polarimetry.

TL;DR: Polychromatic modulators as mentioned in this paper operate over a wide wavelength range with near-optimal polarimetric efficiency and are directly applicable to the next generation of multiline Stokes polarimeters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wavelength-Diverse Polarization Modulators for Stokes Polarimetry

TL;DR: This work presents a new paradigm for the design of polarization modulators that operate over a wide wavelength range with near-optimal polarimetric efficiency and are directly applicable to the next generation of multiline Stokes polarimeters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of Seeing-Induced Polarization Cross-Talk and Modulation Scheme Performance

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze the generation of polarization cross-talk in Stokes polarimeters by atmospheric seeing, and its effects on the noise statistics of spectropolarimetric measurements for both single-beam and dual-beam instruments.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Preliminary design of the visible spectro-polarimeter for the Advanced Technology Solar Telescope

TL;DR: The Visible Spectro-Polarimeter (ViSP) as mentioned in this paper is one of the first light instruments for the Advanced Technology Solar Telescope (ATST) and is designed to measure three different regions of the solar spectrum in three separate focal planes simultaneously between 380 and 900 nm.
