Wavefront sensing and guiding units for the Large Binocular Telescope
The Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) will see first light with a single primary mirror in January 2003. It will be equipped with fully adaptive secondary mirrors from the beginning as well as a complete on-axis wavefront sensing and tip-tilt guiding system. Here we present the preliminary design of the Acquisition, Guiding, and Wavefront sensing system for the LBT. The system is divided in an of...
متن کاملSimulation of aperture synthesis with the Large Binocular Telescope
The Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) will have two 8.4 m apertures spaced 14.4 m from center to center. Adaptive optics will be used to recover deep, long exposure di raction-limited images in the infrared. The LBT con guration has a di raction-limited resolution equivalent to a 22.8 m telescope along the center-to-center baseline. Using simulated LBT images and an iterative blind deconvolution ...
متن کاملAn Overview of Instrumentation for the Large Binocular Telescope
An overview of the 3 facility instruments and 2 strategic interferometric instruments under construction for the Large Binocular Telescope is presented. Planned optical instrumentation includes the Large Binocular Camera (LBC), a pair of wide-field (25′ × 25′) UB/VRI optimized mosaic CCD imagers at the prime focus, and the MultiObject Double Spectrograph (MODS), a pair of dual-beam blue-red opt...
متن کاملA Multi-object Double Spectrograph for the Large Binocular Telescope
We are building a Multi-Object Double Spectrograph for the Large Binocular Telescope. The main themes of our planned research with the instrument are the formation and evolution of galaxies and their nuclei and the evolution of large-scale structure in the universe, although we expect that the spectrograph will be used for many other varieties of programs as well. The science goals for the inst...
متن کاملMulti-laser-guided adaptive optics for the Large Binocular Telescope
We describe the conceptual design of an advanced laser guide star facility (LGSF) for the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT), to be built in collaboration with the LBT’s international partners. The highest priority goal for the facility is the correction of ground-layer turbulence, providing partial seeing compensation in the near IR bands over a 4 field. In the H band, GLAO is projected to improv...
