  • Anthonisamy, Arockia Bazil Raj; Durairaj, Padmavathi; Lancelot, J. P (IET, 2016-06-16)
    Among various atmospheric effects, beam wandering is the main cause for the major power loss in free space optical communication (FSOC) which cannot be resolved without incorporating the beam wandering compensation (BWC) ...
  • Sridharan, R; Raja Bayanna, A; Srivastava, N; Kumar, B; Ravindra, B; Gupta, S. K; Jain, N; Ambastha, A; Venkatakrishnan, P (Astronomical Society of India, 2003)
    Adaptive Optics (AO) systems improve the resolution of ground based telescopes and allow for long exposure images. Their performance depends on the seeing conditions at the time of observations. In this paper, we evaluate ...
  • Chinnappan, V; Saxena, A. K; Sreenivasan, A (Astronomical Society of India, 2002-09)
    Atmospheric turbulence distorts the incoming wavefront from the star light, thus severely limiting the resolution of the groundbased optical telescopes (Fried 1966). Adaptive optics is being implemented in all big ...

  • Vyas, A; Roopashree, M. B; Prasad, B. R (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc, 2009)
    The performance metrics of different centroiding algorithms at low light level conditions were optimized in the case of a Shack Hartmann Sensor (SHS) for efficient performance of the adaptive optics system. For short ...
  • Naidu, B. N; Srinivasan, R; Mohan, V; Sagar, R (Astronomical Society of India, 2001)
    We evaluate performance of the 4K x 4K mosaic CCD camera system developed at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics using four Thomson CCDs in a buttable configuration. The camera system consists of a mosaic CCD dewar developed ...
  • Saha, S. K; Chinnappan, V (Astronomical Society of India, 2002-09)
    A new generation CCD detector caJ.led low light level OOD (L3CCD) that performs like an intensified CCD without incorporating a micro channel plate (MOP) for light amplification was procured and tested. A series of ...
  • Ghosh, S. K; Tandon, S. N; Joseph, P; Devaraj, A; Shelat, D. S; Stalin, C. S (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2021-10)
    Performance of the Level-2 pipeline, which translates the UVIT data created by the ISRO’s ground segment processing systems (Level-1) into astronomer ready scientific data products, is described. This pipeline has evolved ...
  • Anantha, Ch; Sivarani, T; Jones, D; Giridhar, S; Grobler, D; Jakobsson, R (2017-02)
    As a continuation to the published work on model based calibration technique with HESP(Hanle Echelle Spectrograph) as a case study, in this paper we present the performance results of the technique. We also describe how ...
  • Vishwanath, P. R; Acharya, B. S; Bhat, P. N; Chitnis, V. R; Majumdar, P; Rahman, M. A; Singh, B. B (Astronomical Society of India, 2002)
    Monte Carlo calculations have been done to understand various characteristics like the energy threshold, collection area etc of the recently commissioned PACT. The energy threshold of the array for gamma rays is found to ...
  • Arellano Ferro, A; Rosenzweig, P; Luna, A; Deras, D; Muneer, S; Giridhar, S; Michel, R (WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co., 2018-02)
    Based on photometric data obtained between 1935 and 2017, O −C diagrams were built for 22 RR Lyrae stars in the globular cluster NGC 6171, leading to the discovery of secular period changes in four variables for which we ...
  • Radhakrishnan, K. R; Abhyankar, K. D; Sarma, M. B. K (Astronomical Society of India, 1984-06)
    Photoelectric observations of the Algol-type eclipsing binary R Canis Majoris during three consequtive observing seasons of 1979-82 gave a total of ten primary minima in each of the V and B passbands and nine in the U ...
  • Sarma, C. V. S. R; Sarma, M. B. K; Abhyankar, K. D (Astronomical Society of India, 1985-12)
    Using the available photographic and photoelectric times of minima, we have revised the elements of the light-time orbit of SV Camelopaedalis, an RS CVn type eclpsing binary. Taking a mass function of 0.118 M and the ...
  • Vivekananda Rao, P; Sarma, M. B. K (Astronomical Society of India, 1983-03)
    The short period RS CVn type eclipsing binary UV Piscium was observed photoelectrically with standard U, B, V filters for three consecutive observing seasons during 1976-1979. A total of nine primary minima in each of V ...
  • Kariyappa, R; Satya Narayanan, A; Dame, L (Astronomical Society of India, 2005-03)
    Chromospheric bright points are sites where intense heating takes place by 3-min period waves. A 35-min-long time series of photographic spectra obtained in CaII H-line on a quiet region at the center of the solar disk ...
  • Mekkaden, M. V (Astronomical Society of India, 1990)
    UBVRI photometry of the isolated T Tauri star TW Hya, obtained during 1987 April from ESO, is presented. The data analysis shows a periodicity of 2.195 d in light variation. The steep increase of amplitude towards shorter ...
