Published in 2019 at "Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific"

DOI: 10.1088/1538-3873/ab0c40

Abstract: The achievement of $\mu$arcsec relative astrometry with ground-based, near infrared, extremely large telescopes requires a significant endeavour of calibration strategies. In this paper we address the removal of instrument optical distortions coming from the ELT… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society"

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/staa1870

Abstract: MICADO, a near-infrared imager for the Extremely Large Telescope, is being designed to deliver diffraction limited imaging and 50 microarcsecond (μas) astrometric accuracy. MICADO employs an atmospheric dispersion corrector (ADC) to keep the chromatic elongation… read more here.
