  • Connection of cryogenic fluid transfer lines
    Tightly connect tubes used for the circulation of cryogenic fluids is a task that requires some thought and technical experience. ESO is intensively using liquid nitrogen either to pre-cool large infrared instruments or to keep most of the optical and some IR detectors at cryogenic operating temperature. A solid experience has been gained with many

  • CosmoSys-Req: a free open-source requirements management tool
    Text-based requirements management tools are widely used in engineering today. The concept behind it is quite simple, but this simplicity does not mean that these tools are affordable. In most cases, the cost of a requirements management tool license is similar to the cost of a CAD software license, the latter pertaining to a much more complex

  • Deformable mirrors for the EST testbed: testing and characterization
    The European Solar Telescope is a 4-m class solar telescope planned to include a multi-conjugate adaptive optics system (MCAO) for high spatial resolution over a circular field of view with 60" diameter. MCAO systems constitute a very complex and still not mature technology in both optical and control terms. To deal with this issue, a downscaled

  • Design of the Coudé Light Distribution for the European Solar Telescope
    One of the main goals of the European Solar Telescope (EST), a 4.2-m telescope, is to clarify the roots of the magnetic processes taking place in the solar atmosphere. This goal has a top-level requirement: perform simultaneous spectropolarimetric measurements in multiple spectral lines. For this purpose, EST will be equipped with a set of

  • Development of a 35-micron slicer-based Integral Field Unit for high-resolution 2D solar spectroscopy
    Integral Field Spectropolarimetry (IFS) makes feasible the simultaneous measurement of a 2D field with the use of an Integral Field Unit (IFU). Slicer-based IFUs rearrange an input 2D Field of View (FoV) to an output long-slit that is used to feed a standard spectrograph. The spatial resolution reachable with this technique is determined by the

  • Dynamic modeling, control and simulation of the EST Telescope structure: quantifying performance during tracking operation
    The European Solar Telescope (EST) is a 4-m class solar telescope that will include a multi-conjugate adaptive optics system (MCAO) integrated in the telescope optical path. Currently, the EST is in its preliminary design phase, in which different alternatives for the main telescope subsystems must be proposed and evaluated to meet the main
