我们描述了康奈尔大学的近红外相机系统PARO(Palomar高角度分辨率观察者),该系统是为使用5米Hale望远镜上的JPL Palomar自适应光学系统而建造的。PHARO使用1024×1024HgCdTe夏威夷探测器在1到2.5μ米波长之间进行观测。一种全反射光学系统在两个尺度上提供衍射限制图像,即25和40mS像素−1,外加光瞳成像模式。法罗还具有日冕成像能力和分辨率为≈1500的长缝格栅光谱学模式。自1998年初以来,该仪器一直与Palomar的AO系统一起使用。
We describe Cornell’s near‐infrared camera system PHARO (Palomar High Angular Resolution Observer) built for use with the JPL Palomar Adaptive Optics System on the 5 m Hale telescope. PHARO uses a 1024 × 1024 HgCdTe HAWAII detector for observations between 1 and 2.5 μm wavelength. An all‐reflecting optical system provides diffraction‐limited images at two scales, 25 and 40 mas pixel−1, plus a pupil imaging mode. PHARO also has a coronagraphic imaging capability and a long‐slit grism spectroscopy mode at resolving power ≈1500. The instrument has been in use with the AO system at Palomar since early 1998.
