DFM Engineering has provided five siderostats mounting 0.5
meter aperture flat mirrors. These have been used for the
JPL/Keck test bed interferometer and have extremely low jitter
in the axis motion and in mirror piston. We have also provided
drives for larger systems.
Features:
Extremely low jitter
4 degrees per second axes motion
Mirror front surface located precisely at the
intersection of the axes
On axis 1 arc second resolution encoders
Axes fiducials
Computer control system
Coeleostats: A ceoleostat is typically a siderostat,
but the word is poorly defined. The name may also be used
to describe a beam
director.
