Precision Positioning of Microrobots for Multi-Object Spectrographs

Luzius Gregor Kronig

How does one study the evolution of the Milky Way, or the expansion of the Universe, or explore the mysteries of Dark energy? To investigate these complex topics, astronomers require data, and a great deal of it, in the form of the spectra of stars, galaxi ...

Adaptive Regularization For Three-Dimensional Optical Diffraction Tomography

Michaël Unser, Demetri Psaltis, Thanh-An Michel Pham, Emmanuel Emilien Louis Soubies, Ahmed Ayoub, Ahmed Bassam Sayed Ayoub Mohamed Emam

Optical diffraction tomography (ODT) allows one to quantitatively measure the distribution of the refractive index of the sample. It relies on the resolution of an inverse scattering problem. Due to the limited range of views as well as optical aberrations ...

Euclid: The reduced shear approximation and magnification bias for Stage IV cosmic shear experiments

Georges Meylan, Jean-Luc Starck, Yi Wang, Richard Massey

Context. Stage IV weak lensing experiments will offer more than an order of magnitude leap in precision. We must therefore ensure that our analyses remain accurate in this new era. Accordingly, previously ignored systematic effects must be addressed.Aims. ...

Ophthalmic system and method for clinical device using transcleral illumination with multiple points source

Christophe Moser, Timothé Laforest, Mathieu Künzi

An ophthalmic illumination and imaging system with transscleral / transpalpebral illumination of the eye fundus comprises a light-delivering device with a plurality of emitting areas; each of the emitting areas being configured to be independently controll ...

Synchrotron-based phase-contrast micro-CT as a tool for understanding pulmonary vascular pathobiology and the 3-D microanatomy of alveolar capillary dysplasia

Goran Lovric

This study aimed to explore the value of synchrotron-based phase-contrast microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) in pulmonary vascular pathobiology. The microanatomy of the lung is complex with intricate branching patterns. Tissue sections are therefore diffi ...

Molecular gas in distant brightest cluster galaxies

Gianluca Castignani

The mechanisms governing the stellar mass assembly and star formation history of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) are still being debated. By means of new and archival molecular gas observations we investigate the role of dense megaparsec-scale environmen ...

Precise and accurate image-based measurements of optical material properties

Marjan Shahpaski

The appearance of objects is governed by how they reflect, transmit and absorb the light they receive. That, in turn, depends on the material's internal structure, surface structure, and viewing and illumination directions. Changes in those characteristics ...

LSST: From Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products

David Atienza Alonso, Darong Huang, Jonathan Andrew Blazek, Shahram Khazaei, Anja Annemone Becker, Shikhar Tuli, Michelle Miller, Guillaume Blanc, Abhijit Saha, Wei Cui

We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). The LSST design is driven by four main science themes: probing dark energy and dark matter, taking an inventory of the solar system, ex ...

Dark Energy Survey Year 1 results: Methodology and projections for joint analysis of galaxy clustering, galaxy lensing, and CMB lensing two-point functions

Eduardo Sanchez, Jonathan Andrew Blazek, Augusto Martins Lima, César Octavio Domínguez Sánchez De La Blanca, Craig Matthew Smith

Optical imaging surveys measure both the galaxy density and the gravitational lensing-induced shear fields across the sky. Recently, the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Collaboration used a joint fit to two-point correlations between these observables to place ti ...

Evidence for a dual mechanism in the TiO2/CuxO photocatalyst during the degradation of sulfamethazine under solar or visible light: Critical issues

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Jiajie Yu

This study presents the photocatalytic degradation of sulfamethazine (SMT) on TiO2/CuxO nanotubes (NTs) by a differentiated mechanism under low intensity solar light and indoor visible light irradiation. In the presence of TiO2/CuxO nanotubes, the SMT-degr ...
