We present the in-orbit performance and the first results from the ultra-violet Imaging telescope (UVIT) on ASTROSAT. UVIT consists of two identical 38cm coaligned telescopes, one for the FUV channel (130-180nm) and the other for the NUV…
We have studied the performance of the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope payload on AstroSat and derived a calibration of the FUV and NUV instruments on board. We find that the sensitivity of both the FUV and NUV channels is as expected from…
Results of the initial calibration of the Ultra-Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) were reported earlier by Tandon et al. (2017). The results reported earlier were based on the ground calibration as well as the first observations in orbit.…
Ultra Violet Imaging Telescope on ASTROSAT Satellite mission is a suite of Far Ultra Violet (FUV; 130 to 180 nm), Near Ultra Violet (NUV; 200 to 300 nm) and Visible band (VIS; 320 to 550nm) imagers. ASTROSAT is a first multi wavelength…
The Ultra-Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) is one of the payloads in ASTROSAT, the first Indian Space Observatory. The UVIT instrument has two 375mm telescopes: one for the far-ultraviolet (FUV) channel (1300--1800\AA), and the other for the…

The performance of the ultraviolet telescope (UVIT) on-board ASTROSAT is reported. The performance in orbit is also compared with estimates made from the calibrations done on the ground. The sensitivity is found to be within ~15% of the…
We present the calibration of the Swift UVOT grisms, of which there are two, providing low-resolution field spectroscopy in the ultraviolet and optical bands respectively. The UV grism covers the range 1700-5000 Angstrom with a spectral…
Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) is one of the payloads onboard AstroSat, India's first multi-wavelength Astronomy mission. UVIT is primarily designed to make high resolution images in wide field, in three wavelength channels…
We present deep UV imaging observations of the Great Observatories Origins Survey Northern (GOODS-N) field with AstroSat/UVIT (AstroSat UV Deep Field north - AUDFn), using one far-UV (F154W, 34.0 kilosec) and two near-UV filters (N242W,…
The structure of our Galaxy has been studied from ultraviolet (UV) star counts obtained with the Ultra-Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on board the {\em AstroSat} satellite, in Far-UV (FUV) and Near-UV (NUV) bands. The F154W (BaF2) and…
The calibration of the two UVOT grisms which provide slitless spectroscopy in the 170-500 nm (UV grism) and 295-660 nm (visible grism) ranges has been completed. The UV grism has a spectral resolution ($\lambda/\Delta\lambda$) of 75 at…
Modern grating manufacturing techniques suffer from inherent issues that limit their peak efficiencies. The anisotropic etching of silicon facilitates the creation of custom gratings that have sharp and atomically smooth facets, directly…
The Ultra-Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) is one of the payloads in Astrosat, the first Indian Space Observatory. The UVIT instrument has two 375 mm telescopes: one for the far-ultraviolet (FUV) channel (1300-1800 A), and the other for the…
We present the photometric calibration of the Swift UltraViolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) which includes: optimum photometric and background apertures, effective area curves, colour transformations, conversion factors for count rates to…
The Ultra Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) onboard India's first dedicated multiwavelength satellite \textit{AstroSat} observed a significant fraction of the sky in the ultraviolet with a spatial resolution of 1.4\arcsec. We present a…
We characterize the evolution of the rest-frame 1500 $\unicode{xC5}$ UV luminosity Function (UVLF) from AstroSat/UVIT F154W and N242W imaging in the Great Observatories Origins Survey North (GOODS-N) field. With deep FUV observations, we…
Spectral measurements play a vital role in understanding laser-plasma interactions. The ability to accurately measure the spectrum of radiation sources is crucial for unraveling the underlying physics. In this article, we introduce a novel…
The Arcus Probe mission concept has been submitted as an Astrophysics Probe Explorer candidate. It features two co-aligned high-resolution grating spectrometers: one for the soft x-ray band and one for the far UV. Together, these…
The far-ultraviolet (FUV) channel of the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) is designed to operate between 1130{\AA} and 1850{\AA}, limited at shorter wavelengths by the reflectivity of the MgF2 protected aluminum reflective surfaces on the…
