One of the major objectives of the optomechanics is to support large optics required for the purpose and also to maintain high dynamic stability in operation. This requirement calls for more number of supports, to support large optics. While addressing this issue, the mounting system tends to become non-kinematic and distorts the optical surface and leads to poor image quality. The distorted optical surfaces bring in increased RMS surface wavefront errors which will result in poor image quality. In this context, a new concept is proposed in our previous publication (Nagabhushana et al., 2021) which involves introduction of deformable bushes at the optomechanical interfaces. These are deformed by applied clamping forces and also enabling all degrees of freedom (DOF) to be arrested. This also ensures that the clamping force in axial DOF is limited to a minimal value. This technique enables to arrest of axial DOF without exerting the clamping force on the optomechanical assembly there by reduces optical aberrations and improves the mounting system’s dynamic stability. This is because deformable bushes absorb all the clamping forces and the strain has no impact on the mount and therefore does not lead deformation of the optical surface. The clamping forces are simulated by Finite Element (FE) methods. Further, in this paper, the concept is verified and validated by experiments. The simulation results are observed to be in close correlation with experiment results. Improved stability is also observed by additional constraints introduced to optomechanical mounts with no compromise in wavefront errors.
光力学的主要目标之一是支持所需的大型光学器件,并在运行中保持高动态稳定性。这一要求需要更多的支持,以支持大型光学器件。在解决这个问题时,安装系统往往会变得非运动学和扭曲光学表面,导致图像质量差。光学表面的畸变会导致表面波前均方根误差增大,从而导致成像质量下降。在此背景下,我们在之前的出版物(Nagabhushana等人,2021)中提出了一个新概念,该概念涉及在光机械界面引入可变形的套管。这些是变形的应用夹紧力,也使所有的自由度(DOF)被逮捕。这也保证了夹持力在轴向自由度被限制到一个最小值。该技术可以在不施加夹持力的情况下实现轴向自由度的控制,减少了光学像差,提高了安装系统的动态稳定性。这是因为可变形的衬套吸收了所有的夹紧力,并且应变对安装没有影响,因此不会导致光学表面变形。采用有限元方法对夹紧力进行了模拟。进一步,本文通过实验对该概念进行了验证和验证。模拟结果与实验结果有较好的相关性。改进的稳定性也观察到额外的约束引入光机械安装没有妥协的波前误差。

The Infrared Astronomy Group (Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics) at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) is presently developing controllers for the Teledyne HxRG Focal Plane Arrays (FPAs) to be used on board the Infrared Spectroscopic Imaging Survey (IRSIS) satellite payload. In this manuscript we discuss the results of our tests with different FPA controllers like the Astronomical Research Cameras (ARC) controller, Teledyne’s SIDECAR ASIC as well as our new in-house designed Array controller. As part of the development phase of the IRSIS instrument, which is an optical fibre based Integral Field Unit (IFU) Near-Infrared (NIR) Spectrometer, a laboratory model with limited NIR bandwidth was built which consisted of various subsystems like a Ritchey-Chretien (RC) 30 cm telescope, optical fibre IFU, spectrometer optics, and the Teledyne H2RG detector module. We discuss the various developments during the building and testing of the IRSIS laboratory model and the technical aspects of the prototype in-house H2RG controller.

Electromagnetic radiation from human activities, known as man-made Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), adversely affects radio astronomy observations. In the vicinity of the Upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT) array, the sparking on power lines is the major cause of interference at observing frequencies less than 800 MHz. A real-time broadband RFI detection and filtering system is implemented as part of the uGMRT wideband signal processing backend to mitigate the effect of broadband RFI. Performance analysis techniques used for testing and commissioning the system for observations in the beamformer and correlator modes of the uGMRT are presented. The concept and implementation of recording simultaneous unfiltered and filtered data along with data analysis and interpretation is illustrated using an example. For the beamformer mode, spectrogram, single spectral channel, and its Fourier transform is used for performance analysis whereas, in the correlator mode, the cross-correlation function, closure phase, and visibilities from the simultaneously recorded unfiltered and filtered is carried out. These techniques are used for testing the performance of the broadband RFI filter and releasing it for uGMRT users.

A Digital Calibration Source for 21cm Cosmology Telescopes 21cm宇宙学望远镜的数字校准源

Foreground mitigation is critical to all next-generation radio interferometers that target cosmology using the redshifted neutral hydrogen 21 cm emission line. Attempts to remove this foreground emission have led to new analysis techniques as well as new developments in hardware specifically dedicated to instrument beam and gain calibration, including stabilized signal injection into the interferometric array and drone-based platforms for beam mapping. The radio calibration sources currently used in the literature are broad-band incoherent sources that can only be detected as excess power and with no direct sensitivity to phase information. In this paper, we describe a digital radio source which uses Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) derived time stamps to form a deterministic signal that can be broadcast from an aerial platform. A copy of this source can be deployed locally at the instrument correlator such that the received signal from the aerial platform can be correlated with the local copy, and the resulting correlation can be measured in both amplitude and phase for each interferometric element. We define the requirements for such a source, describe an initial implementation and verification of this source using commercial Software Defined Radio boards, and present beam map slices from antenna range measurements using the commercial boards. We found that the commercial board did not meet all requirements, so we also suggest future directions using a more sophisticated chipset.
前景缓解对于所有使用红移的中性氢21厘米发射线瞄准宇宙学的下一代无线电干涉仪至关重要。消除这种前景发射的尝试导致了新的分析技术以及专门用于仪器波束和增益校准的硬件的新发展,包括将稳定信号注入干涉阵列和基于无人机的平台进行波束映射。目前文献中使用的无线电校准源是宽带非相干源,只能检测为多余功率,对相位信息没有直接灵敏度。在本文中,我们描述了一种数字无线电源,它使用全球定位卫星(GPS)衍生的时间戳来形成可以从空中平台广播的确定信号。此源的副本可在仪器相关器处本地部署,使得从空中平台接收的信号可与本地副本相关,且可针对每个干涉测量元件在振幅和相位两者中测量所得相关性。我们定义了这种源的要求,描述了使用商业软件设计的无线电板对该源的初始实现和验证,并展示了使用商业板对天线范围测量的波束图切片。我们发现商用板并不能满足所有要求,因此我们还建议未来使用更复杂的芯片组。

We present recent improvements to the search for the global Cosmic Dawn signature using the Long Wavelength Array station located on the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico, USA (LWA–SV). These improvements are both in the methodology of the experiment and the hardware of the station. An improved observing strategy along with more sophisticated temperature calibration and foreground modelling schemes have led to improved residual RMS limits. A large improvement over previous work using LWA–SV is the use of a novel achromatic beamforming technique which has been developed for LWA–SV. We present results from an observing campaign which contains 29 days of observations between March 10, 2021 and April 1
