Da allora la comunità internazionale ha segnato enormi progressi in tutti i campi del settore spaziale, dalle telecomunicazioni all’osservazione della Terra, dall’esplorazione robotica del Sistema Solare all’osservazione dell’Universo lontano. Il nostro Paese, grazie al contributo della nostra Agenzia Spaziale, degli Istituti di Ricerca e delle Università italiane, ha mantenuto e consolidato nel tempo la sua posizione di primissimo ordine nelle missioni scientifiche a livello Europeo e mondiale, spesso ricoprendo posizioni di leadership riconosciute a livello internazionale. Guardando al futuro, lo spazio si presenta come una frontiera quanto mai irrinunciabile per la nuova generazione di imprese scientifiche di

  • Next Generation EOS Wind Speed LIDAR Sensor: Hot Pixel Generation and Clock Induced Charge in Te2v EM Ccds
    Next generation EOS wind speed LIDAR sensor: Hot Pixel Generation and Clock Induced Charge in Te2v EM CCDs Supervision team: David Hall, Ben Dryer, Andrew Holland External supervisors: Doug Jordan and Paul Jerram, Te2v Lead contact: David Hall ([email protected]) Description: Launched in August 2018, Aeolus is the first satellite that is able to acquire profiles of the Earth’s wind at a global scale. Near-real time observations from the mission are helping to dramatically improve the accuracy of weather and climate prediction, advancing our understanding of climate variability and tropical dynamics. In recent months, with the current global pandemic bringing a sharp decline in weather-related measurements, data from Aeolus has proved even more important to provide accurate forecasting across Europe. The Aeolus mission, the fifth in the family of ESA’s Earth Explorer missions addressing key scientific challenges using breakthrough technology, is collecting these vital data using laser technology. Traditional methods used to gather this type of data involve deploying weather balloons, cloud tracking, and monitoring temperature and surface winds. Instead, the Aeolus satellite employs a very powerful laser in an instrument known as ALADIN. Teledyne e2v, in collaboration with Airbus Defence & Space and ESA, developed an innovative new detector that simultaneously measures the distance of a returned ultraviolet laser pulse to resolve the altitude of aerosols in the atmosphere, and the Doppler shift that equates to the wind speed at each altitude. Teledyne e2v’s detector consists of a 16 x 16 pixel CCD with a novel storage region that accumulates the signal from several successive laser pulses.

  • EMCCD Detector Development for Space Applications: from the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope to Future Mission Opportunities
    EMCCD detector development for space applications: from the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope to future mission opportunities Supervision team: Dr David Hall, Dr Jesper Skottfelt and Prof. Andrew Holland External supervisors: Doug Jordan and David Barry, Te2v Lead contact: David Hall ([email protected]) Description: The Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) has been the detector of choice for space telescopes for visible and X-ray astronomy for several decades, with key successes on the Hubble Space Telescope, XMM-Newton and Gaia to name but a few. However, to push forwards with new discoveries and to better understand the universe we need to observe ever fainter signals. The Centre for Electronic Imaging (CEI) at the Open University (OU) has been involved in Electron-Multiplying (EM) CCD development since 2004. The EMCCD was developed for low- light-level imaging with applications such as night vision. It was later developed further for use in bio imaging and life sciences, observing faint fluorescence from biological samples. The technology works in much the same way as the standard CCD, but includes an additional register in the silicon that allows the application of higher voltages (approximately 5 times higher than those used as standard in a CCD) to employ impact ionisation, multiplying the signal before it leaves the device and therefore before any additional noise is added. In this way, an EMCCD can be operated with much higher frame rates and with sub-electron noise. Despite the new applications that the EMCCD has found on the ground, it is yet to be employed in a large space mission.
