Abstract:

AbstractOver the past few years, site-testing at the South Pole has revealed conditions that are uniquely favourable for infrared astronomy. In particular, the exceptionally low sky brightness throughout the near and mid-infrared leads to the possibility of a modest-sized telescope achieving comparable sensitivity to that of existing 8–10 metre class telescopes. An 8 metre Antarctic telescope, if constructed, would yield performance that would be unrivalled until the advent of the NGST. In this paper we review the scientific potential of infrared telescopes in Antarctica, and discuss their com

AbstractThe Cassegrain telescope, made of a concave primary mirror and a convex secondary mirror, is widely utilized for modern astronomical observation. However, the existence of curved mirrors inevitably results in bulky configurations. Here, we propose a new design of the miniaturized Cassegrain telescope by replacing the curved mirrors with planar reflective metasurfaces. The focusing and imaging properties of the Cassegrain metasurface telescopes are experimentally verified for circularly polarized incident light at near infrared wavelengths. The concept of the metasurface telescopes can

IRAS, COBE, and ISO have demonstrated the unique importance of a cryogenic infrared telescope in space for studying diffuse infrared backgrounds and for teasing out the individual point sources which contribute to them. This importance results from the extremely high infrared sensitivity of such telescopes, particularly to diffuse radiation. The next cryogenic infrared telescope will be NASA's Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF), which is currently in the final stages of construction leading to launch in 2002. SIRTF will be the first infrared space observatory to make extensive use - bot

Abstract:

Abstract Ground-based mid-infrared (MIR) astronomical observations require the removal of the fast time variable components of (a) sky/background variation and (b) array background. Typically, this has been achieved through oscillating the telescope’s secondary mirror a few times a second, a process termed “chopping.” However, chopping reduces on-object photon collection time, imposes stringent demands on the secondary mirror, requires nodding of the telescope to remove the radiative offset imprinted by the chopping, and relies on an often-fixed chop-frequency regardless of the sky conditions

Having no window and a filled aperture, i.e., no occlusion by secondary optics, the all-reflective McMath telescope is a proven IR facility. Beyond about 2 μm, it is diffraction limited, however. Engineering studies show that the McMath building could accommodate an increase to a 4-m aperture with a 6-m alt-azimuth feed, permitting sub-arcsec resolution to 12 μm. The use of cooled, solid aluminum mirrors would eliminate “mirror seeing”, which plagues non-vacuum solar telescopes.

Abstract:

AbstractThe status of Japan's planning of the optical/infrared astronomy projects for the 2010's is briefly reviewed. The road map shows a 30 m class extremely large ground based telescope project with advanced adaptive optics capability, JELT, and a mid-infrared optimized 3.5 m space telescope project, SPICA, as the top-priority major project to be accomplished probably on international collaboration basis.

Abstract:

AbstractThe Japanese National Large Telescope is an 8-metre class optical-infrared reflector with a monolithic thin meniscus mirror, to be constructed at the Mauna Kea summit, Hawaii. The JNLT will be characterised by high quality performance in the optical and infrared regions, achieved by adopting new technologies such as active mirror support, fast optics and a thermally controlled dome. In particular, high infrared qualities are regarded as the most important characteristics among various design goals.The JNLT project is now close to the final study phase before construction.

Abstract:

If we concentrate our attention on the study and the evolution of star forming processes rather than on the large scale structure, from the recent use of Large Telescopes in this context there are many examples of great interest. These include the study of the early phases of aggregation of matter (stellar and planet formation), and the late phases of disaggregation during stellar evolution. In Fig 1, a spectacular example is shown of a high resolution image of an edge-on circumstellar disk of a young star (HR4796A), with respect to previous less resolved information (C.Telesco et al, Proc SPI
