A Hyperspectral Imager for a Cubesat to Identify Ocean Ship Parameters
… Imagers are ideal for minimization with few optical errors introduced, and designs range in durability making them useful on board small satellites especially in the visible and near infrared region. Placing an imager on a satellite allows for consistent observation over a region to identify …

Planar feasibility study for primary mirror control of large imaging space systems using binary actuators
… An important issue in the ULST is correcting for optical errors caused by large thermal deformations expected due to exposure to radiation in orbit. As of now, there are no methods for solving technical complexities involved in correcting for such deformations. Furthermore, the costs associated …

The Role of Mirror Errors in Solar Energy Conversion
… have slope, shape, tracking, and non-specularity errors. This thesis investigates the role that these errors play in decreasing the overall efficiency with which radiation is converted to work in a system that relies on reflection. Three theoretical approaches are taken. Taking a “black box” …
