We present the results of our study of astrometric stability of 200-in Hale (Mt. Palomar) and 10-m Keck II (Mauna Kea) telescopes, both with Adaptive Optics (AO) facilities. A group of nearby visual binaries and multiples was observed in…

This manuscript provides a new framework for calibration of optical instruments, in particular mobile cameras, using large-scale circular black and white target fields. New methods were introduced for (i) matching targets between images;…

The Chinese Space Station Survey Telescope (CSST) will perform a decade-long high-precision wide-field imaging survey that relies on rigorous on-orbit calibration. This necessitates stable celestial benchmark fields to maintain photometric…

We present the results of a search for galaxy alignments in 12 galaxy clusters at z>0.5, a statistically complete subset of the very X-ray luminous clusters from the MAssive Cluster Survey (MACS). Using high-quality images taken with the…

We present QUIJOTE intensity and polarization maps in four frequency bands centred around 11, 13, 17 and 19GHz, and covering approximately 29000 deg$^2$, including most of the Northern sky region. These maps result from 9000 h of…

It is well-known that the number of non-crossing perfect matchings of $2k$ points in convex position in the plane is $C_k$, the $k$th Catalan number. Garc\'ia, Noy, and Tejel proved in 2000 that for any set of $2k$ points in general…

We examine 3D reconstruction of architectural scenes in unordered sets of uncalibrated images. We introduce a linear method to self-calibrate and find the metric reconstruction of a camera pair. We assume unknown and different focal lengths…

Observed properties of stars and planets in binary/multiple star systems provide clues to planet formation and evolution. We extended our survey for visual stellar companions to the hosts of transiting exoplanets by 21 stars, using the…

We present a new calibration of optical (UBV, Stromgren, uvby-beta, and Geneva) and near IR (Johnson RIJHK and 2MASS) photometry for B and early A stars derived from Kurucz (1991) Atlas model atmospheres. Our sample of stars consists of 45…

LiDAR-camera calibration is a precondition for many heterogeneous systems that fuse data from LiDAR and camera. However, the constraint from common field of view and the requirement for strict time synchronization make the calibration a…

The findings of a nine orbit calibration plan carried out during HST Cycle 15, to fully determine the NICMOS camera 2 (2.0 micron) polarization calibration to high accuracy, are reported. Recently Ueta et al. and Batcheldor et al. have…

Many robotics and mapping systems contain multiple sensors to perceive the environment. Extrinsic parameter calibration, the identification of the position and rotation transform between the frames of the different sensors, is critical to…

The knowledge of the binary properties of metal-poor and solar-metallicity stars can shed light on the potential differences between the formation processes responsible for both types of objects. The aim of the project is to determine the…

Polarimetric imaging has been applied in a growing number of applications in robotic vision (ex. underwater navigation, glare removal, de-hazing, object classification, and depth estimation). One can find on the market RGB Polarization…

Studies discerning whether there is a significant correlation between UHECR arrival directions and optical AGN are hampered by the lack of a uniformly selected and complete all-sky optical AGN catalog. To remedy this, we are preparing such…

Heterodyne receivers register the sky signal on either a circular polarization basis (where it is split into left-hand and right-hand circular polarization) or a linear polarization basis (where it is split into horizontal and vertical…

In experiments probing human vision at the few-photon level, precise alignment of the eye is necessary such that stimuli reach the most sensitive region of the retina. However, in literature there seems to be no consensus on the optimal eye…

The daytime sky has been recently demonstrated as a useful calibration tool for deriving polarization cross-talk properties of large astronomical telescopes. The Daniel K Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST) and other large telescopes under…

The 355 optically polarized QSOs have redshifts from 0.061 to 3.94 and are spread out over the sky except for a 60 degree band centered on the Galactic Equator. The data we analyze was measured, collected and published by others. Here, we…

We introduce Paired-CSLiDAR (CSLiDAR), a cross-source aerial-ground LiDAR benchmark for single-scan pose refinement: refining a ground-scan pose within a 50 m-radius aerial crop. The benchmark contains 12,683 ground-aerial pairs across 6…
