Looking beyond 30m-class telescopes: the Colossus project
Jeff Kuhn,Svetlana Berdyugina,Maud Langlois,Gil Moretto,Eric Thiébaut,C. Harlingten,David Halliday +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a concept which breaks this scaling relation in a large optical/IR system called "Colossus", which is optimized for narrow-field science and can violate the cost and mass scaling laws that make conventional large-aperture telescopes relatively expensive.
The Large Adaptive reflector : A 200-m diameter, wideband, cm-m wave radio telescope
B. Carlson,Luc Bauwens,Leonid Belostotski,Elizabeth Cannon,Ya-Ying Chang,Xiaohui Deng,Peter E. Dewdney,Joeleff Fitzsimmons,David Halliday,Kai Kürschner,Gérard Lachapelle,David Lo,Pedram Mousavi,Meyer Nahon,L. Shafai,Sigfried F. Stiemer,Russ Taylor,Bruce Veidt +17 more
TL;DR: The Large Adaptive Reflector (LAR) as discussed by the authors is a concept for a low-cost, large aperture, wideband, radio telescope, designed to operate over the wavelength range from 2 m to 1.4 cm.

Proceedings ArticleDOI
Canadian very large optical telescope technical studies
Scott Roberts,Christopher L. Morbey,Dennis R. Crabtree,Raymond G. Carlberg,David Crampton,T. J. Davidge,Joeleff Fitzsimmons,Mike Gedig,David Halliday,James E. Hesser,Glen Herriot,J. Beverly Oke,John Pazder,Kei Szeto,Jean-Pierre Véran +14 more
TL;DR: A 20 m Canadian Very Large Optical Telescope (VLOT) is proposed in this article, which is suitable for location on the Mauna Kea summit ridge, and could replace the current 3.6 m CFHT telescope.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The ExoLife Finder (ELF) Telescope: new adaptive optics and hybrid dynamic live-optical surfaces strategies
Gil Moretto,Jeff Kuhn,Jean-Fabien Capsal,David Audigier,Kritsadi Thetpraphi,Maud Langlois,Michel Tallon,Mike Gedig,Svetlana V. Berdyugina,David Halliday +9 more
TL;DR: The ExoLife Finder (ELF) Telescope as mentioned in this paper is a high-contrast telescope for exoplanets that uses force-sensor-actuator elements that are 3D-printed onto very thin slumped glass-sandwich elements of fire-polished glass.
