This paper describes the relationship between the Space Interferometer Mission (SIM) and the MicroArcsecond Measurment Testbed (MAM). MAM is necessary because differences exist between starlight and the metrology measurements through the SIM instrument optical path.
This paper presents a validation study of a specific integrated modeling methodology which is a candidate tool for modeling complex opto-mechanical systems such as spaceborne interferometers.
This paper validates the integrated modeling methodology used for design and performance evaluation of complex opto-mechanical systems, particularly spaceborne interferometers.
This paper describes the Micro-Precision Interferometer (MPI) testbed and its major achievements to date related to mitigating risk for future spaceborne optical interferometer missions.
This paper validates the integrated modeling methodology used for design and performance evaluation of complex opto-mechanical systems, particularly spaceborne interferometers. The methodology integrates structural modeling, optical modeling, and control system design into a common environment, the Integrated Modeling of Optical Systems (IMOS) software package.
