A Toolbox of Metrology-Based Techniques for Optical System Alignment
Phillip Coulter,Raymond G. Ohl,Peter Blake,Brent J. Bos,Victor J. Chambers,William L. Eichhorn,Jeffrey S. Gum,Theodore Hadjimichael,John G. Hagopian,Joseph E. Hayden,Samuel E. Hetherington,David A. Kubalak,Kyle F. Mclean,Joseph McMann,Kevin Redman,Henry P. Sampler,Greg Wenzel,Jerrod Young +17 more
TL;DR: An overview of a subset of the capabilities and techniques used on several recent projects in a “toolbox” format is provided, from small-scale optical alignment of sensors to mirror and bench examples that make use of various large-volume metrology techniques.
Lunar Ice Cube: ongoing development of first generation deep space CubeSat mission with compact broadband IR spectrometer

- 30 Aug 2019
TL;DR: The design and description of the ongoing development, and testing, in the context of using the cubesat paradigm to fly a broadband IR spectrometer in a 6U platform are presented, including a very harsh environment, minimal funding and extensive need for leveraging existing assets and relationships on development.

Ambient Optomechanical Alignment and Pupil Metrology for the Flight Instruments aboard the James Webb Space Telescope
Phillip Coulter,Alexander Beaton,Jeffery S. Gum,Theodore Hadjimichael,Joseph E. Hayden,Susann Hummel,Jason E. Hylan,David Lee,Timothy J. Madison,Michael Maszkiewicz,Kyle F. Mclean,Joseph McMann,Markus Melf,Linda A. Miner,Raymond G. Ohl,Kevin W. Redman,Andreas Roedel,Paul F. Schweiger,Maurice te Plate,Martyn Wells,Greg W. Wenzel,Patrick Williams,Jerrod Young +22 more
TL;DR: The need to extend quality standards into the domain of imagery analysis, which is expected to increase in national visibility and significance with the increasing deployment of unmanned aerial vehicle—UAV, or “drone”—sensors in the continental U. S., is argued.

TL;DR: The final flight build of the Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM) element of the James Webb Space Telescope is the culmination of years of work across many disciplines and partners as discussed by the authors.
Metrology for Trending Alignment of the James Webb Space Telescope Before and After Ambient Environmental Testing
Theo Hadjimichael,Raymond G. Ohl,Joshua Berrier,Jeffery S. Gum,Joseph S. Hayden,Manal Khreishi,Kyle Mclean,Kevin Redman,Joe H. Sullivan,Greg Wenzel,Jerrod Young,William L. Eichhorn +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the metrology operations conducted to determine any changes in subassembly alignment, including primary mirror segments with respect to each other, the secondary mirror to its support structure, the tertiary mirror assembly to the backplane of the telescope and ultimately to the ISIM.
