This funding will enable the purchase and construction of an adaptive optics test-bench for the characterisation of a novel wavefront sensor that is based on superconducting, energy sensitive detectors. Such a wave-front sensor, when it is completed would form part of an instrument such as the ELT-PCS, which will search for terrestrial planets when it is built in the 2030's.

这笔资金将用于购买和建造自适应光学试验台，用于表征基于超导能量敏感探测器的新型波前传感器。这种波前传感器建成后，将成为ELT-PCS等仪器的一部分。ELT-PCS将在2030年代建成，用于搜索类地行星。
