Heterogeneous Target Assignment to Robotic Fiber Positioner Systems

Denis Gillet, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Matin Macktoobian

The target assignment methods applied to robotic fiber positioners are only applicable to homogeneous sets of targets to be observed. However, different batches of robotic fiber positioners available at the focal plane of a telescope can be simultaneously ...

Low-dimensional data embedding for scalable astronomical imaging in the SKA telescope era

Vijay Kartik

Astronomy is one of the oldest sciences known to humanity. We have been studying celestial objects for millennia, and continue to peer deeper into space in our thirst for knowledge about our origins and the universe that surrounds us. Radio astronomy -- ob ...

Development and Characterisation of Silicon Photomultiplier Multichannel Arrays for the Readout of a Large Scale Scintillating Fibre Tracker

Axel Kuonen

The current LHCb detector will continue collecting data until the long shutdown 2 (2019/2020). It will be upgraded in order to operate at higher luminosity. To achieve this, two major changes are required. First the Level-0 hardware trigger limited to 1,M ...

Bayesian approach to SETI

Claudio Grimaldi

The search for technosignatures from hypothetical galactic civilizations is going through a new phase of intense activity. For the first time, a significant fraction of the vast search space is expected to be sampled in the foreseeable future, potentially ...

COSMOGRAIL XVII. Time delays for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080

Frédéric Courbin, Malte Tewes, Georges Meylan, Vivien François Bonvin, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Sun Hee Kim, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Hung-Hsu Chan, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate

We present time-delay estimates for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080. Our results are based on almost daily observations for seven months at the ESO MPIA 2.2m telescope at La Silla Observatory, reaching a signal-to-noise ratio of about 1000 per quas ...

Plasmonic Nanohole Arrays on Hybrid Substrate For Highly Sensitive Label-Free Biosensing

Arif Engin Cetin

A biosensor device including a metal layer, a transparent substrate layer, and a dielectric layer, wherein the metal layer includes a plurality of sub-wavelength apertures, and wherein the dielectric layer is located between the metal layer and the transpa ...

Back-Propagating the Light of Field Stars to Probe Telescope Mirrors Aberrations

Michaël Unser, Frédéric Courbin, Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez

We propose a wavefront-based method to estimate the PSF over the whole field of view. This method estimate the aberrations of all the mirrors of the telescope using only field stars. In this proof of concept paper, we described the method and present some ...

The major upgrade of the MAGIC telescopes, Part II: A performance study using observations of the Crab Nebula

MAGIC is a system of two Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes located in the Canary island of La Palma, Spain. During summer 2011 and 2012 it underwent a series of upgrades, involving the exchange of the MAGIC-I camera and its trigger system, as well a ...

A randomised primal-dual algorithm for distributed radio-interferometric imaging

Yves Wiaux, Rafael Eduardo Carrillo Rangel, Jason Douglas McEwen

Next generation radio telescopes, like the Square Kilometre Array, will acquire an unprecedented amount of data for radio astronomy. The development of fast, parallelisable or distributed algorithms for handling such large-scale data sets is of prime impor ...

Study of a prototype module of a precision time-of-flight detector for particle identification at low momentum

Lucía Castillo García

In this thesis, Time Of internally Reflected Cherenkov light detector (TORCH), proposed for the LHCb Upgrade to perform three-sigma separation between kaon and pion up to 10 GeV/c, was studied. TORCH is designed to add significant particle identification c ...
