Planck pre-launch status: The optical architecture of the HFI
The Planck High Frequency Instrument, HFI, has been designed to allow a clear unobscured view of the CMB sky through an offaxis Gregorian telescope. The prime science target is to measure the polarized anisotropy of the CMB with a sensitivity of 1 part in 10 with a maximum spatial resolution of 5 arcmin (Cl ∼ 3000) in four spectral bands with two further high-frequency channels measuring total ...
متن کاملPlanck pre-launch status: HFI beam expectations from the optical optimisation of the focal plane
Planck is a European Space Agency (ESA) satellite, launched in May 2009, which will map the cosmic microwave background anisotropies in intensity and polarisation with unprecedented detail and sensitivity. It will also provide full-sky maps of astrophysical foregrounds. An accurate knowledge of the telescope beam patterns is an essential element for a correct analysis of the acquired astrophysi...
متن کاملLaunch Processing System
This paper presents a functional description of the Launch Processing System, which provides automatic ground checkout and control of the Space Shuttle launch site and airborne systems, with emphasis placed on the Checkout, Control, and Monitor Subsystem. Hardware and software modular design concepts for the distributed computer system are reviewed relative to performing system tests, launch op...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Launch Optical Telemetry Feasibility Study
Results of a preliminary study to evaluate the feasibility of optical telemetry on an EM launched projectile are discussed. At issue are the relative intensities of the optical noise received in the MCL catch tank from the muzzle flash versus the narrowband optical signal levels generated from tiny emitters onboard a projectile after being launched in the MCL. Two narrowband optical signal emit...
متن کاملThe finite element analysis of the linear hybrid reluctance motor for the electromagnetic launch system
The Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) is being developed utilizing electrical and electronic technologies. EMALS is emerging in order to replace the existing steam catapult on naval carriers. Recently, the double-sided linear launcher has drawn increasing attention of researchers. This paper presents the design and analysis of the Linear Hybrid Reluctance Motor (LHRM). This new mot...
