The Webb Space Telescope’s on-orbit performance was made possible by successful in-process optical testing and cryogenic requirement compliance certification, verification, and validation of the Webb optical components. This was accomplished by the hard work of dozens of optical metrologists, the development and qualification of multiple custom test setups, and several inventions, including 4D PhaseCam and Leica absolute distance meter. We define a set of rules for optical metrology and summarize how they were applied to the metrology tools, test setups, and processes used to characterize the Webb Space Telescope primary mirror segment assemblies.
韦伯太空望远镜的在轨性能是通过成功的光学测试和低温要求符合性认证、验证和验证韦伯光学元件而实现的。这是由数十名光学计量学家的辛勤工作,多个定制测试装置的开发和资格,以及几项发明,包括4D PhaseCam和徕卡绝对距离计完成的。我们定义了一套光学计量规则,并总结了它们如何应用于测量工具、测试设置和用于表征韦伯太空望远镜主镜段组件的过程。

Pathways to Discovery in Astronomy and Astrophysics for the 2020s has recommended a Great Observatory Maturation Program (GOMaP) to invest in co-maturation of mission concepts and technologies to inform an analysis of alternatives study for an ∼6 m off-axis inscribed telescope. The purpose of this telescope is to sample atmospheric spectra of around 25 potentially habitable exoplanets using ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared wavelengths; it is planned to launch in the early 2040s with a total cost of less than $11B, including 5 years of operation. A historical review of past missions yields basic programmatic lessons learned to be considered as the community prepares to implement the Decadal Vision. First, technology development is critical for enabling missions. The robustness, breadth, and duration of concept/technology co-maturation is important for mission success. Second, NASA has never “exactly” implemented a Decadal mission as it was recommended. Third, all missions have the same basic technology challenges of mass constraints: mechanical and thermal stability to design, building a space telescope that achieves the required on-orbit performance, and verifying and validating that performance by test and model correlation. Finally, Decadal missions require sustained community support.
2020年代天文学和天体物理学的发现之路已经推荐了一个大天文台成熟计划(GOMaP),以投资于任务概念和技术的共同成熟,为一个~ 6米离轴内倾角望远镜的替代研究分析提供信息。这架望远镜的目的是利用紫外线、可见光和近红外波长对大约25颗可能适合居住的系外行星的大气光谱进行采样;它计划在21世纪40年代初发射,总成本不到110亿美元,包括5年的运营。对过去特派团的历史审查可以得出在社区准备执行十年远景时所吸取的基本方案教训。首先,技术发展对实现任务至关重要。概念/技术共同成熟的稳健性、广度和持续时间对任务的成功至关重要。其次,美国宇航局从未“完全”按照建议执行十年任务。第三,所有任务都面临同样的质量约束的基本技术挑战:设计机械和热稳定性,建造一个达到所需在轨性能的空间望远镜,并通过测试和模型关联来验证和验证该性能。最后,十年特派团需要持续的社区支助。

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) launched on December 25, 2021, and its optical performance in orbit has been even better than predicted pre-flight. The static wavefront error (WFE) is less than half the value specified for the requirement of having diffraction-limited image quality at 2 microns in the NIRCam shortwave channel, enabling the observatory to deliver both sharper images and higher sensitivity than anticipated. In addition to the excellent image quality, the optical stability has also exceeded expectations, both in terms of high-frequency dynamic contributions (which would be perceived as part of “static WFE”) and in terms of drifts over minutes, hours, and days. Stability over long timescales is critical for several important science cases, including exoplanet transit spectroscopy and coronagraphy. JWST’s stability success was achieved through detailed design and testing, with several important lessons learned for future observatories, especially the Habitable Worlds Observatory that is expected to need even higher levels of stability. We review the stability architecture, how it was technologically demonstrated, the ground test results and improvements, the on-orbit results, and the lessons learned.
詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜(JWST)于2021年12月25日发射升空,其在轨光学性能甚至比飞行前预测的要好。静态波前误差(WFE)小于NIRCam短波通道中2微米衍射限制图像质量要求的一半,使天文台能够提供比预期更清晰的图像和更高的灵敏度。除了出色的图像质量外,光学稳定性也超出了预期,无论是在高频动态贡献方面(将被视为“静态WFE”的一部分),还是在几分钟、几小时和几天内的漂移方面。长时间尺度上的稳定性对于包括系外行星凌日光谱学和日冕学在内的几个重要科学案例至关重要。JWST的稳定性成功是通过详细的设计和测试实现的,为未来的天文台,特别是预计需要更高稳定性的宜居世界天文台,吸取了一些重要的经验教训。我们回顾了稳定性架构,技术演示,地面测试结果和改进,在轨结果,以及经验教训。

The proposed Daksha mission comprises of a pair of highly sensitive space telescopes for detecting and characterizing high-energy transients, such as electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational wave events and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Along with spectral and timing analysis, Daksha can also undertake polarization studies of these transients, providing data crucial for understanding the source geometry and physical processes governing high-energy emission. Each Daksha satellite will have 340 pixelated cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) detectors arranged in a quasi-hemispherical configuration without any field-of-view collimation (open detectors). These CZT detectors are good polarimeters in the energy range 100 to 400 keV, and their ability to measure polarization has been successfully demonstrated by the cadmium zinc telluride imager onboard AstroSat. Here, we demonstrate the hard x-ray polarization measurement capabilities of Daksha and estimate the polarization measurement sensitivity (in terms of the minimum detectable polarization: MDP) using extensive simulations. We find that Daksha will have MDP of 30% for a fluence threshold of 10 − 4 erg cm − 2 (in 10 to 1000 keV). We estimate that with this sensitivity, if GRBs are highly polarized, Daksha can measure the polarization of about five GRBs per year.
拟议的Daksha任务包括一对高灵敏度的太空望远镜,用于探测和表征高能瞬变,例如引力波事件和伽马射线暴(grb)的电磁对应。除了光谱和时序分析,Daksha还可以进行这些瞬态的极化研究,为理解高能发射源的几何形状和物理过程提供至关重要的数据。每颗Daksha卫星将有340个像素化镉锌碲化(CZT)探测器,排列成准半球形结构,没有任何视场准直(开放式探测器)。这些CZT探测器在100 ~ 400 keV的能量范围内具有良好的极化测量能力,其极化测量能力已被AstroSat上的碲化镉锌成像仪成功验证。在这里,我们展示了Daksha的硬x射线偏振测量能力,并通过广泛的模拟估计了偏振测量灵敏度(根据最小可探测偏振:MDP)。我们发现,当影响阈值为10−4 erg cm−2(10至1000 keV)时,Daksha的MDP为30%。我们估计,以这种灵敏度,如果伽马射线暴是高度极化的,Daksha每年可以测量大约5个伽马射线暴的极化。

The large side aperture of the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) telescope for unfocused photons (so-called stray light) is a known source of rich astrophysical information. To support many studies based on the NuSTAR stray light data, we present a fully automatic method for determining detector area suitable for background analysis and free from any kind of focused x-ray flux. The method’s main idea is “á trous” wavelet image decomposition, capable of detecting structures of any spatial scale and shape, which makes the method of general use. Applied to the NuSTAR data, the method provides a detector image region with the highest possible statistical quality, suitable for the NuSTAR stray light studies. We developed an open-source Python nuwavdet package, which implements the presented method. The package contains subroutines to generate detector image region for further stray light analysis and/or to produce a list of detector bad-flagged pixels for processing in the NuSTAR Data Analysis Software for conventional x-ray analysis.
核光谱望远镜阵列(NuSTAR)望远镜的大侧面孔径可以观测到未聚焦的光子(所谓的杂散光),这是已知的丰富天体物理信息的来源。为了支持基于核星杂散光数据的许多研究,我们提出了一种全自动确定适合背景分析且不受任何类型聚焦x射线通量影响的探测器区域的方法。该方法的主要思想是“小波”图像分解,能够检测任何空间尺度和形状的结构,使该方法具有通用性。应用于NuSTAR数据,该方法提供了一个具有最高统计质量的探测器图像区域,适合于NuSTAR杂散光研究。我们开发了一个开源的Python nuwavdet包,它实现了所提出的方法。该软件包包含子程序,用于生成探测器图像区域,用于进一步的杂散光分析和/或生成探测器坏标记像素列表,以便在NuSTAR数据分析软件中进行常规x射线分析。

Assessing phase reconstruction accuracy for different nonlinear curvature wavefront sensor configurations 评估不同非线性曲率波前传感器配置的相位重建精度

The nonlinear curvature wavefront sensor (nlCWFS) offers improved sensitivity for adaptive optics (AO) systems compared to existing wavefront sensors, such as the Shack-Hartmann. The nominal nlCWFS design uses a series of imaging planes offset from the pupil along the optical propagation axis as inputs to a numerically-iterative reconstruction algorithm. Research into the nlCWFS has assumed that the device uses four measurement planes configured symmetrically around the optical system pupil. This assumption is not strictly required. In this paper, we perform the first systematic exploration of the location, number, and spatial sampling of measurement planes for the nlCWFS. Our numerical simulations show that the original, symmetric four-plane configuration produces the most consistently accurate results in the shortest time over a broad range of seeing conditions. We find that the inner measurement planes should be situated past the Talbot distance corresponding to a spatial period of $r_0$. The outer planes should be large enough to fully capture field intensity and be situated beyond a distance corresponding to a Fresnel-number-scaled equivalent of $Zapprox50$ km for a $D=0.5$ m pupil with $lambda=532$ nm. The minimum spatial sampling required for diffraction-limited performance is 4-5 pixels per $r_0$ as defined in the pupil plane. We find that neither three-plane nor five-plane configurations offer significant improvements compared to the original design. These results can impact future implementations of the nlCWFS by informing sensor design.
与现有的波前传感器(如Shack-Hartmann)相比,非线性曲率波前传感器(nlCWFS)为自适应光学(AO)系统提供了更高的灵敏度。标称nlCWFS设计使用一系列的成像平面从瞳孔偏移沿光学传播轴作为输入到一个数值迭代重建算法。对nlCWFS的研究假设该设备使用四个测量平面对称地配置在光学系统瞳孔周围。这个假设并不是严格要求的。本文首次对nlCWFS测量平面的位置、数量和空间采样进行了系统的探索。我们的数值模拟表明,在广泛的视觉条件下,原始的对称四平面配置在最短的时间内产生最一致的精确结果。我们发现内部测量平面应该位于塔尔博特距离之后,对应于$r_0$的空间周期。外平面应该足够大,以充分捕捉场强,并且位于菲涅耳数刻度的距离之外,对应于$D=0.5$ m瞳孔和$lambda=532$ nm瞳孔的距离为$Zapprox50$ km。衍射限制性能所需的最小空间采样是在瞳孔平面中定义的4-5像素/ $r_0$。我们发现,与原始设计相比,三平面和五平面配置都没有显着改进。这些结果可以通过为传感器设计提供信息来影响nlCWFS的未来实现。

Research into the nlCWFS has assumed that the device uses four measurement planes configured symmetrically around the optical system pupil. This assumption is not strictly required. In this paper, we perform the first systematic exploration of the location, number, and spatial sampling of measurement planes for the nlCWFS. Our numerical simulations show that the original, symmetric four-plane configuration produces the most consistently accurate results in the shortest time over a broad range of seeing conditions. We find that the inner measurement planes should be situated past the Talbot distance corresponding to a spatial period of $r_0$. The outer planes should be large enough to fully capture field intensity and be situated beyond a distance corresponding to a Fresnel-number-scaled equivalent of $Zapprox50$ km for a $D=0.5$ m pupil with $lambda=532$ nm. The minimum spatial sampling required for diffraction-limited performance is 4-5 pixels per $r_0$ as defined in the pupil plane. We find that neither three-plane nor five-plane configurations offer significant improvements compared to the original design. These results can impact future implementations of the nlCWFS by informing sensor design.","PeriodicalId":54342,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Astronomical Telescopes Instruments and Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134971621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

. The Line Emission Mapper (LEM) is a proposed x-ray probe mission to study the physics of galaxy formation through spectral and spatial measurements of x-rays in the energy band of 0.2 to 2 keV. The LEM Microcalorimeter Spectrometer instrument on LEM will have a hybrid transition-edge sensor (TES) microcalorimeter array made up of an inner array of single-pixels with one x-ray absorber connected to one TES and an outer array of multi-absorber microcalorimeters, or “ hydras, ” with four absorbers connected to a single TES, each with a different thermal conductance. Here, we characterize the first hybrid array of single-pixel and multi-absorber micro-calorimeters designed for LEM. We present the fundamental transition, noise, and detector performance properties to demonstrate their suitability for the mission. We also show that the spectral resolution at the Al K α line is 1 . 92 (cid:1) 0 . 02 eV for the 4-pixel hydra (coadded) and 0 . 90 (cid:1) 0 . 02 eV for the single-pixels. This is significantly better resolution than the LEM mission level requirement. Finally, we demonstrate that the position discrimination between the four pixels of the hydra can be achieved down to 200 eV when measured with a time-division multiplexed readout using timings representative of the anticipated LEM requirements. © The Authors.
