HAWAII TELESCOPE PROJECT SIMULATOR
The latest end-to-end data simulator on Solar System bodies, the Galactic center, energetic transient objects, active galactic nuclei, and distant gravitationally-lensed galaxies were used. The scientific prospects and simulations by the first generation instrument for the TMT called the Infrared Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS), were described in one of the SPIE proceedings in 2016. It had resulted in two significant papers, among many others. Ghez in the ongoing research and developmental activities of the TMT project. Shashi Bhushan Pandey, a scientist at Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES) along with many others collaborated with Prof. Annapurni Subramanium, Director of the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA) and Dr. The Thirty-meter telescope (TMT) project is an international partnership between CalTech, Universities of California, Canada, Japan, China, and India through the Department of Science and Technology (DST) and Department of Atomic Energy (DAE). She was part of the team working towards evaluating possible front-line science cases and instrumentation for TMT utilizing associated front-line cutting edge technologies like adaptive optics. Ghez was deeply involved in the development of the related instrumentation and possible science prospects for the TMT, the next-generation observatory. Reinhard Genzel for which they shared the Nobel prize in physics, Prof. Ghez’s remarkable contribution in the discovery of a super massive compact object at the center of our Galaxy along with Prof. Andrea Ghez had worked closely with Indian astronomers on the design of back-end instruments and possible science prospects of the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) project being installed at Maunakea in Hawaii, which can revolutionized the understanding of the universe and the enigmas in it.īesides, Prof.
