论文摘要
我们在这里提出了Calar Alto Schmidt-Lemaitre望远镜(Castle)Concept,这是一个用于弯曲探测器的技术演示器,该探测器将安装在喀拉尔舞厅天文台(西班牙)。该望远镜具有广泛的视野(2.36x1.56 ver^2)和一种设计,其优化旨在生成具有非常低水平的机翼和降低的幽灵功能的点扩展功能,这使得它对几种系统效应通常会影响相似的系统效果。这些特征特别适合研究低表面亮度宇宙。城堡将能够达到比天空背景水平比天空背景水平的地表亮度量的幅度,并观察星系周围极高而淡淡的特征,例如潮汐特征,恒星光环,群集群集光等。城堡也将用于搜索和检测天体物理瞬变,例如gamma ray(grb),重力波动式的contrino,prvertical counterrino,prvertical counterrino,prestical contrino contrino,prectistal contrino contrino,精确的柜台,精确的柜台,局部GRB从20%到60%(对于Fermi/GMB GRB)。
We present here the Calar Alto Schmidt-Lemaitre Telescope (CASTLE) concept, a technology demonstrator for curved detectors, that will be installed at the Calar Alto Observatory (Spain). This telescope has a wide field of view (2.36x1.56 deg^2) and a design, optimised to generate a Point Spread Function with very low level wings and reduced ghost features, which makes it considerably less susceptible to several systematic effects usually affecting similar systems. These characteristics are particularly suited to study the low surface brightness Universe. CASTLE will be able to reach surface brightness orders of magnitude fainter than the sky background level and observe the extremely extended and faint features around galaxies such as tidal features, stellar halos, intra-cluster light, etc. CASTLE will also be used to search and detect astrophysical transients such as gamma ray bursts (GRB), gravitational wave optical counterparts, neutrino counterparts, etc. This will increase the number of precisely localized GRBs from 20% to 60% (in the case of Fermi/GMB GRBs).
