Transmission spectroscopy is a powerful technique for probing exoplanetary atmospheres. A successful ground-based observational method uses a differential technique based on high-dispersion spectroscopy, but that only preserves narrow…
A micro-pulse lidar at eye-safe wavelength is constructed based on an up-conversion single-photon detector. The ultralow noise detector enables using integration technique to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the atmospheric…
A gas of ultracold atoms probed with laser light is a nearly-ideal experimental realization of a medium of resonant point-like scatterers, a key problem from condensed matter to biology or photonics. Yet, several recent experiments have…
Ground-based optical astronomical observations supported by or in the vicinity of laser guide-star systems can be contaminated by Raman-scattered laser photons. Anticipating, alleviating, and correcting for the impact of this self-inflicted…
A Statistic Vectorial Complex Ray Model (SVCRM) is proposed for the scattering of a plane wave by a non-spherical dielectric particle in three dimensions. This method counts the complex amplitudes of all rays arriving in a tiny box in the…
We present an analysis of errors on the tensor-to-scalar ratio due to residual diffuse foregrounds. We use simulated observations of a CMB polarization satellite, the Cosmic Origins Explorer, using the specifications of the version proposed…
The first experimental data from single-particle scattering experiments from free electron lasers (FELs) are now becoming available. The first such experiments are being performed on relatively large objects such as viruses, which produce…
We describe a system being developed for measuring the shapes of the mirrors of the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST), now under construction for the CCAT Observatory. "Holographic" antenna-measuring techniques are an efficient and…
We describe the successful design, implementation, and operation of a 12 GHz holography system installed on the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope (GBT). We have used a geostationary satellite beacon to construct high-resolution…
We study a novel communication mechanism, ambient backscatter, that utilizes radio frequency (RF) signals transmitted from an ambient source as both energy supply and information carrier to enable communications between low-power devices.…
Context. The wings of the Ca II H and K lines provide excellent photospheric temperature diagnostics. At the Swedish 1-meter Solar Telescope the blue wing of Ca II H is scanned with a narrowband interference filter mounted on a rotation…
High-spatial-resolution secondary ion mass spectrometry offers a method for mapping lithium at nanoscale lateral resolution. Practical implementation of this technique offers significant potential for revealing the distribution of Li in…
The goal of synthetic aperture imaging is to estimate the reflectivity of a remote region of interest by processing data gathered with a moving sensor which emits periodically a signal and records the backscattered wave. We introduce and…
As a key low-power communication technique, backscatter communication has received significant attention since the rising of the Internet of Things (IoT). We revisit the state-of-the-art backscatter system, RBLE [1]. It solves several key…
We demonstrate a prototype light scattering instrument combining a frequency domain approach to the intermediate scattering function from Super-Heterodyning Doppler Velocimetry with the versatility of a standard homodyne Dynamic Light…
Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a powerful tool for monitoring surface deformation with high precision. However, low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) conditions, common in regions with low backscatter, can degrade phase…
HWO aims to directly image objects orbiting Sun-like stars, using a 6-m telescope capable of high-contrast imaging ($10^{-10}$) and spectroscopy to search for biosignatures in planets located in the habitable zone. Recent laboratory…
Scattering from objects near an antenna produce correlated signals from strong compact radio sources in a manner similar to those used by the Sea Interferometer to measure the radio source positions using the fine frequency structure in the…
Atmospheric retrieval determines the properties of an atmosphere based on its measured spectrum. The low signal-to-noise ratio of exoplanet observations require a Bayesian approach to determine posterior probability distributions of each…
Atmospheric density profiles as well as several light absorption and scattering processes depend on geographic position and are generally time-variable. Their impact on the atmospheric Cherenkov technique in general (imaging or non-imaging)…
