  1. Yutaka Hayano January 31, 2008 AO188/LGSStatus and Schedule

  2. Contents • Subaru AO188/LGS overview • Performance evaluation • Status and Schedule

  3. Upgrade from AO36 to AO188/LGS

  4. System layout Instruments IRCS (HiCIAO) (Kyoto 3DII)

  5. 20mas FOV N IRCS 52mas camera 53” x 53” E AO188/NGS First Light October 2006

  6. FWHM K-band V=9.2 guide star

  7. Strehl Ratio K-band V=9.2 guide star Seeing 7

  8. Encircled Energy L’ M’ H Seeing K J z

  9. System upgrade from the first light configuration • Optics • New components. (AOIMR, BS, etc.) • Upgrade components. (AO Calibration source, Acquisition Unit etc.) • Electronics • New electronics for new components. • Minor upgrade. • Cabling. • Software • Re-configuration • Minor upgrade. • New software for new components. • Others • Cover, cooling system, AO/IRCS transfer mechanism.

  10. New/Upgrade items on AO optical bench AO Calibration Light source Image rotator Off-axis Parabola Flat mirror High-order WFS ADC DM AU1 Flat mirror Low-order WFS BS2 BS1 Off-axis Parabola AU2 HiCIAO I/F F-conversion

  11. Current status AO calibration light source unit Cleared up AO optical bench

  12. Schedule and Milestones 2006 2007 2008 2009 First light AOCAL HOWFS IMR LOWFS Design AOCAL HOWFS IMR LOWFS Manufacture AOCAL/HOWFS/IMR LOWFS Assembly April - May AO188 assembly/Hilo Test Summit Transportation 6/5 Second light (NGS) 7/19 Summit Test/Eng Obs Risk shared open use (NGS) S08B Laser launch test/LGS test 5/12 Risk shared open use (LGS) S09A

  13. Risk-shared open use (S08B) • Limited number of nights, proposals. • (~ 10 nights, ~ 5 proposals) • Use sidereal natural guide star. • IRCS. (imaging , spectroscopy) • Required functionality • Acquisition Unit (AU) can acquires a sidereal guide star. • AU can shifts the AO point. (dithering) • Wavefront correction in feedback control. • AOIMR can compensate the image rotation. • System startup and shutdown. • Individual check system for each component.
