We propose a very simple method for measuring the zero-dispersion wavelength of an optical fiber as well as the ratio between the third- and fourth-order dispersion terms. The method is based on the four wave mixing process when pumping the…
We theoretically study the problem of detecting dipole radiation in an optical system of high numerical aperture in which the detector is sensitive to \textit{field amplitude}. In particular, we model the phase sensitive detector as a…
Fibre modal noise occurs in high spectral resolution, high signal-to-noise applications. It imposes fundamental limits on the photometric accuracy of state-of-the-art fibre-spectrograph systems. In order to maximize the performance of…
Optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR) has been widely used for characterizing fiber optical links and for detecting and locating fiber faults. OTDR traces are prone to be distorted by different kinds of noise, causing blurring of the…
The Shear TEsting Programme, STEP, is a collaborative project to improve the accuracy and reliability of all weak lensing measurements in preparation for the next generation of wide-field surveys. In this first STEP paper we present the…
By means of C-OTDR (Correlation - Optical Time Domain Reflectometry), we measured the latency of100 km fiber with an accuracy of a few picoseconds. Based on iterating 49 measurements, we calculated a standard deviation of 12 ps between the…
The Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) has obtained more than 23 million spectra, opening an unprecedented opportunity to study stellar physics, as well as the formation and evolution of our Milky Way. In…
Massively multiplexed spectrographs will soon gather large statistical samples of stellar spectra. The accurate estimation of uncertainties on derived parameters, such as line-of-sight velocity $v_\mathrm{los}$, especially for spectra with…
This paper addresses the high precision measurement of the distortion of a digital camera from photographs. Traditionally, this distortion is measured from photographs of a flat pattern which contains aligned elements. Nevertheless, it is…
Astronomic line mapping with single-pixel instruments is usually performed in an on-the-fly (OTF) or a raster-mapping mode depending on the capabilities of the telescope and the instrument. The observing efficiency can be increased by…
Parallax measurements allow distances to celestial objects to be determined. Coupled with measurement of their position on the celestial sphere, it gives a full three-dimensional picture of the location of the objects relative to the…
Fiber photometry permits monitoring fluorescent indicators of neural activity in behaving animals. Optical fibers are typically used to excite and collect fluorescence from genetically-encoded calcium indicators expressed by a subset of…
The weak-lensing science of the LSST project drives the need to carefully model and separate the instrumental artifacts from the intrinsic lensing signal. The dominant source of the systematics for all ground based telescopes is the spatial…
The stray light uniformity is one of the important factors affecting the signal-to-noise ratio of the optical astronomical telescope. It will cause regional differences in the background intensity of the detector image, resulting in a…
Off-axis digital holography is used to align a few-mode fiber to a multi-mode fiber in a free-space optical setup. Alignment based on power coupling measurements alone cannot guarantee low mode-dependent loss. The proposed alignment method…
Multi-mode fiber (MMF) endoscopes are a new type of endoscope that use only a single optical fiber to transmit images, achieving much higher spatial resolution for a given diameter than commercial fiber bundle endoscopes. However, a…
A standard paradigm of localization microscopy involves extension from two to three dimensions by engineering information into emitter images, and approximation of errors resulting from the field dependence of optical aberrations. We invert…
The primary objective of accelerator tuning is to correct its linear optics. This involves adjusting a large set of parameters, such as quadrupole lens gradients and alignment errors, as well as addressing various calibration errors in beam…
Model fitting is frequently used to determine the shape of galaxies and the point spread function, for examples, in weak lensing analyses or morphology studies aiming at probing the evolution of galaxies. However, the number of parameters…
Optical fibre is drawn from a dual-head 3D printer fabricated preform made of two optically transparent plastics with a high index core (NA ~ 0.25, V > 60). The asymmetry observed in the fibre arises from asymmetry in the 3D printing…
