We present the official release of the EFfective Field theORy surrogaTe (Effort), a novel and efficient emulator designed for the Effective Field Theory of Large-Scale Structure (EFTofLSS). This tool combines state-of-the-art numerical…

The 39-meter European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) is expected to have very low throughput in the blue part of the visible spectrum. Because of that, a blue-optimised spectrograph at the 8-meter Very Large Telescope could potentially…

We introduce ICE-TIDE, a method for cryogenic electron tomography (cryo-ET) that simultaneously aligns observations and reconstructs a high-resolution volume. The alignment of tilt series in cryo-ET is a major problem limiting the…

Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are powerful computational tools for investigating thermodynamic behavior and validating analytical approaches in complex physical systems. Here we present ETHER (Efficient Tool for THermodynamics Exploration…

The Wide-Field Imaging Interferometry Testbed (WIIT) will provide valuable information for the development of space-based interferometers. This laboratory instrument operates at optical wavelengths and provides the ability to test…

The Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT) is one of the five candidates that were considered by ESA as an M3 mission (with launch in 2022-2024). It is specifically designed to exploit the diagnostics of very rapid X-ray flux and…

Self-lensing (SL) represents a powerful technique for detecting compact objects in binary systems through gravitational microlensing effects, when a compact companion transits in front of its luminous partner. We present the first…

CCAT will be a large sub-millimeter telescope to be built near the ALMA site in northern Chile. The telescope must support a varied set of instrumentation including large format KID cameras, a large heterodyne array and a KID-based direct…

The Epoch of Reionization Spectrometer (EoR-Spec) is an upcoming Line Intensity Mapping (LIM) instrument designed to study the evolution of the early universe (z = 3.5 to 8) by probing the redshifted [CII] 158 $\mu$m fine-structure line…

We present a discussion of the design issues and trade-offs that have been considered in putting together a new concept for MOSAIC, the multi-object spectrograph for the E-ELT. MOSAIC aims to address the combined science cases for E-ELT MOS…

The VIS instrument on board the Euclid mission is a weak-lensing experiment that depends on very precise shape measurements of distant galaxies obtained by a large CCD array. Due to the harsh radiative environment outside the Earth's…

DECal is a new calibration system for the CTIO 4 m Blanco telescope. It is currently being installed as part of the Dark Energy Survey and will provide both broadband flat fields and narrowband (about 1 nm bandwidth) spectrophotometric…

We propose a many-core CPU architecture for Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) scale adaptive optics (AO) real-time control (RTC) for the multi-conjugate AO (MCAO) and laser-tomographic AO (LTAO) modes. MCAO and LTAO differ from the more…

An important tool for the development of the next generation of extremely large telescopes (ELTs) is the Systems Engineering (SE). GMACS is the first-generation multi-object spectrograph working at visible wavelengths for the Giant Magellan…

We are designing and constructing a new SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) instrument to search for direct evidence of interstellar communications via pulsed laser signals at near-infrared wavelengths. The new instrument design…

*To be published in Springer Handbook of Surface Science (Springer Verlag) [Preprint]* The capability to display images containing chemical, magnetic and structural information and to perform spectroscopy and diffraction from a {\mu}m-sized…

Image-based tracking of medical instruments is an integral part of surgical data science applications. Previous research has addressed the tasks of detecting, segmenting and tracking medical instruments based on laparoscopic video data.…

Optical and near-infrared Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors, or MKIDs, are low-temperature detectors with inherent spectral resolution that are able to instantly register individual photons with potentially no false counts or readout…

We outline the development of the readout software for the Prime-Cam and Mod-Cam instruments on the CCAT Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST), primecam_readout. The instruments feature lumped-element kinetic inductance detector (LEKID)…

The Speckle Imager via MUlti Layer Atmospheric Turbulence Object Reconstructor (SIMULATOR) is a lab-based testbed instrument developed to test for speckle correlation-based techniques in the optical regime. However, this instrument can be…
