近地天体望远镜配置大阵面CCD后轴外像差的校正

近地天体望远镜由SI600S (4k×4k) CCD升级为STA1600LN (10k×10k) CCD后,观测视场由4 deg~2增至9 deg~2,可用视场直径由望远镜原设计视场的3.14°增至4.28°,超出原设计36%,同时作为CCD密封窗的场镜增厚8.75 mm;两个因素导致10k CCD成像的轴外像差增大,视场外围的像质变差.依据望远镜原始设计光学参数,借助光学设计软件ZEMAX进行像质改善尝试,最终选择在10k CCD场镜前插入一个由两片球面透镜组成的场改正镜,使10k CCD的轴外像差得到校正.同时还提出了一个进一步拓展近地天体望远镜观测能力的设计方案,将望远镜的可用视场从目前的14.38 deg~2扩展至28.27 deg~2.     

辛方法的校正公式

1996年Wisdom等提出了对辛方法进行校正的概念和实践，现在继续对辛校正进行详尽讨论和数值比较，尤其对哈密顿函数可分解为一个主要部分和多个次要部分的一般情形，用Lie级数推导任意阶的各种辛算法的一次和二次辛校正公式并对一些算法给出具体的辛校正公式。又以日、木、土三体问题为模型进行数值实验，结果表明一次辛校正能提高精度，改善数值稳定性。计算效率也比较高，因而值得推荐使用，辛方法通常用大步长数值积分，这时二次辛校正并没有显著提高结果的精度，却大大增加了计算时间，不应予以推荐。     

A wide-field corrector at the prime focus of a Ritchey-Chrétien telescope

We propose a form of a lens corrector at the prime focus of a hyperboloidal mirror that provides a flat field of view up to 3° in diameter at image quality D₈₀<0.8 arcsec in integrated (0.32–1.1 µm) light. The corrector consists of five lenses made of fused silica. All lens surfaces are spherical in shape, so the system is capable of achieving better images, if necessary, by aspherizing the surfaces. The optical system of the corrector is stable in the sense that its principal features are retained when optimized after significant perturbations of its parameters. As an example, we calculated three versions of the corrector for the Blanco 4-m telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory with \(2\mathop .\limits^ \circ 12\), \(2\mathop .\limits^ \circ 4\) and \(3\mathop .\limits^ \circ 0\) fields of view.     

施密特望远镜的主光路导星系统

通过对施密特望远镜导星系统的研究,本文提出了一种新的主光路导星系统的设想。在这种导星系统中,引导星位于视场的中心,避免了由于大气较差折射引起视场尺度变化对导星精度的影响。这种导星系统的另一个显著优点是不需要任何运动机件来搜索所需的引导星,从而使导星系统结构简化。文章还对导星系统相关的其它问题进行了讨论。     

Exact optics – VI. Schmidt cameras and prime correctors

The methods of exact optics are here extended to cover the design of lens and mirror systems. Power series are given for the shapes of both Schmidt corrector plates and their complementary almost spherical mirrors. Their off-axis images are analysed.

Tip-tilt wavefront corrector for large-sized CCD cameras

A tip-tilt wavefront (image displacement) corrector has been designed and fabricated to increase the efficiency of direct imaging with large-sized CCD cameras. A plane-parallel glass plate tilting in two mutually perpendicular directions at an angle large enough to compensate for an image displacement of±16″ on a telescope with F ≈ 20 m forms the basis of the device. The device allows up to ≈20 corrections per second to be made when a ～14^m reference star is used. We investigate the effects of aberrations introduced by the plate on the image quality. We present the results of test observations with the corrector performed on the 1.25-m ZTE telescope at the Crimean Station of the Sternberg Astronomical Institute and the 1.5-m AZT-22 telescope at the Maidanak Observatory, where test images with 1-h exposures that completely realized atmospheric seeing were obtained.     

Fast optics for large telescopes

Reports on two optical designs studied in connection with the JNLT project: namely, the primary corrector and the camera for a spectrograph, are presented.Paper presented at the symposium on the JNLT and Related Engineering Developments, Tokyo, November 2–December 2, 1988.     

Three types of 2-degree field compensating atmospheric dispersion correctors for prime focus

Three types of prime focus correctors for Chinese 2.16m telescope are introduced in this paper. Each corrector has a 2 degree field and can be used to compensate the atmospheric dispersion of 6″. All the three correctors have excellent image quality and the angles between the principal rays and the optical axes are quite small. There is no special technological difficulty in their fabrication. These designs can not only be used in the 2.16m telescope but also be applied to other large telescopes.     

An improvement on the star—Pair method for determining telescope field distortion

We introduce an improvement on the star-pair method for determining the field distortion of a telescope. Our version is theoretically strict, it overcomes the short-comings of the traditional method and many star-pairs from one plate can be used for determining the distortion coefficients. Preliminary results of an application for the twin photographic telescope of Purple Mountain Observatory are presented.     

A new family of multistep numerical integration methods based on Hermite interpolation

In this paper, a new family of explicit and implicit multistep methods is presented both for the error-controlled and uncontrolled modes. The main concept is to replace the Newton interpolation with the Hermite interpolation, where the Hermite polynomial is fitted to the function values and its derivatives. This idea is very useful in the numerical solution of problems (e.g., orbit propagation problem) where higher-order derivatives can easily be computed. In addition to the theoretical concept, the stability regions of the proposed methods are determined. The new methods are more stable than the well-known multistep numerical integrators (i.e., Adams–Bashforth and Adams–Bashforth–Moulton) in the explicit, implicit, and predictor–corrector forms. Using the second-order derivatives gives smaller error constants in the proposed method. The new integrators are numerically tested for a few examples, and the solutions are compared with those of the well-known multistep methods. Moreover, the CPU time and absolute integration error are compared in the satellite orbit propagation problem using various integration methods. The CHAMP mission, i.e., a German small-satellite mission for geoscientific and atmospheric research and applications, is considered as a case study for comparing the achievable accuracy of the proposed method with the existing method for solving the two-body problem.
