Optical Filters for Astronomy Applications

高品位の単板のガラス基板を使用して、耐久性のあるスパッタハードコートを成膜した最高品質の天体観測用光学フィルターを製造しています。単板基板を使用しており、貼合せはしておりません。すべての主コートは前面に、反射防止膜は裏面に成膜され、ゴーストを防ぎ、透過率を最大化します。

非常に精密、正確で、透過帯域はスペクトル的に安定で、温度変動や湿度の変化にも波長ドリフトすることはありません。すべてのフィルターは、f / 4以下の口径で使用できます。また、より要求の厳しいイメージングアプリケーション向けに、特注にてf / 3やf / 2などの大口径に対応したものも提供しています。さらに、ご要望に応じて、より大きなサイズやご要望の通過帯域のフィルターもご提供いたします。

NGC 281A

The large dark nebula that makes up this "gaping mouth" is a molecular cloud made up predominantly of molecular hydrogen, but also dust and other gases. New generations of solar systems are being forged within its cold interior. Once these young stars’ fusion engines switch on, they will irradiate their surroundings–heating up, ionizing and eroding away the remaining dark material from which they formed.

Originally the whole Pac-Man nebula would have been one large dark molecular cloud. The stars that formed early on at its centre have progressively hollowed out the centre of the nebula. The gas in and around this central region is ionized by the copious UV radiation emitted by the central open star cluster (IC 1490), causing it to glow and provide the light by which this narrowband image was taken.
