MOSAIC on the ELT: front-end and instrument AITV planification
- Abstract:
-
MOSAIC is the Muti-Object Spectrograph for the 39m ESO Extremely Large Telescope. The instrument development has recently been reorganized in different channels to be implemented progressively. The Laboratoire d’Astrophysique de Marseille (LAM) is in charge of the instrument “Assembly, Integration, Test and Verification (AIT/V)” phases. AITV for AO instruments, in laboratory as at the telescope, always represent numerous technical challenges. We already started the preparation and planning for the instrument level AIT activities, from identification of needs, challenges, risks, to defining the optimal AIT strategy.
In this paper, we present the state of this study, discuss a new approach with distributed AIT activities and controlled remotely over different sites. We describe AIT/V scenarios with phased implementation, starting with the Front-End and Visible channels AIT phases. We also show our capacity, experience (several MOS instruments, ELT HARMONI) and expertise to lead the instrument MOSAIC AIT/V activities both in Europe and at the telescope in Chile.
