Observing with DAG: Performance Metrics of Imaging and Spectroscopy

Abstract

DAG telescope will be designed as a telescope with adaptive optics and seeing limited modes of observation. Its primary mirror will be a thin meniscus, controlled in shape by an active optics system. This implies specific requirements for the mirrors manufacturing errors tolerancing, studied and defined in this document.
