Abstract:This paper describes installation of a long wavelength infrared (LWIR) acquisition camera on the Starfire Optical Range (SOR) 1 .5 meter telescope, and reports initial performance results. This camera was designed for acquisition of satellites night or day, irrespective of target illumination. The camera may also have wide field-of-view astronomy applications.The optical design for this LWIR acquisition camera maps a 128 x 128 pixel Si:As impurity band conduction detector array onto the two milliradian telesco… Show more
