Speckles and their effects in spectrometers due to on-board diffusers
Hedser van Brug,Ramon Vink,Jos Groote Schaarsberg,Gregory Bazalgette Courreges-Lacoste,Bart Snijders +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the errors associated with the use of on-board diffusers are explained and the origin of the errors, the speckles formed by scattering on the diffusers, are dealt with in detail and solutions to minimize these errors are presented.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Large adaptive deformable membrane mirror with high actuator density
TL;DR: In this article, an adaptive deformable mirror concept is presented, which consists of a thin (30-50 μm) highly reflective, deformable membrane and is supported by an optimized light and stiff honeycomb sandwich structure.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
GAIA testbench: monitoring the basic angle with micro-arcsecond accuracy
Bart Snijders,Pieter Kappelhof,Ben C. Braam,H. J. P. Vink,Peter Verhoeff,Bertrand Calvel,Frederic Safa +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a testbench simulating the GAIA metrology system has been developed by TNO-TPDP, and the basic angle stability should be within 10 microarcsecond rms over the satellite revolution period of 3 hours, or should be known with this accuracy.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Free-beam delay line for a multi-aperture optical space interferometer stabilized on a guide star
TL;DR: In this article, the design of a high-resolution delay line is based on the mission requirements of a space-borne interferometer, and three delay lines, including actuators and control electronics, have been built and have been tested in a dedicated setup, which includes a star simulator and a cophasing interferer.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Homothetic mapping as means to obtain a wide field of view: the Delft Testbed Interferometer
TL;DR: The Delft Testbed Interferometer (DTI) as discussed by the authors has been used for homothetic mapping in real telescope systems for observations on the sky, and its optical layout incorporates a novel tracking concept.
