Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The LSST is a new kind of telescope with ambitious scientific objectives. Its optical design includes large bandpass filters (diameter 780mm) with high optical requirements: in-band transmission higher than 95%, out-of-band transmission less than 0.01% and very steep edges. This paper describes the development made at LMA on large bandpass filters to comply with the LSST specifications
