We explore the use of remapping techniques to improve the efficiency of highly multiplexed fibre systems for astronomical spectroscopy. This is particularly important for the implementation of diverse field spectroscopy (DFS) using highly multiplexed... Read More about Strategies for spectroscopy on extremely large telescopes - III.

The fields of view of Extremely Large Telescopes will contain vast numbers of spatial sampling elements (spaxels) as their adaptive optics systems approach the diffraction limit over wide fields. Since this will exceed the detection capabilities of a... Read More about Strategies for spectroscopy on Extremely Large Telescopes - II. Diverse-field spectroscopy.
