MORFEO: Advancing Towards Final Design

Lorenzo Busoni, Guido Agapito, Marco Bonaglia, Alfio Puglisi et autres

The Multiconjugate adaptive Optics Relay For ELT Observations (MORFEO) is a first-generation adaptive optics module for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), designed to deliver a diffraction-limited, highly uniform 53x53 arcsec field of view to the MICADO near-infrared camera. As the project advances …

MAVIS: FDR mechanical design of the adaptive optics module

Matteo Aliverti, Simone Doniselli, Antony Galla, Gaston Gausachs et autres

MAVIS (MCAO Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph) is a Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics instrument for VLT's UT4, delivering corrected fields of view to a spectrograph, imager, and visiting instrument. Following Final Design Review, we present the Adaptive Optics Module (AOM) mechanical architecture. The …
