Description

Sealed inflatable solar telescope of ground
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of astronomical observation instruments and equipment, in particular to a foundation sealing inflatable solar telescope.
Background
The solar imaging observation data is the most basic observation data for solar physical research and solar activity forecast, and the most important equipment for acquiring the solar imaging observation data is a foundation solar telescope. According to the diffraction limit formula, a larger aperture of the optical system will bring higher resolution. Therefore, in order to acquire smaller-scale solar activity information, the caliber of the ground-based solar telescope is increasing.
Before 2000, the aperture of the solar telescope is more than 1 meter. In order to protect optical elements, the telescope adopts a closed structure mostly, and meanwhile, in order to further eliminate mirror surface thermal deformation and local seeing effect caused by overheating of optical devices, the lens barrel is vacuumized, so that the vacuum type solar telescope is formed. In 2000, the caliber of the solar telescope breaks through the meter level till now, and the meter level reaches 2 meters and 4 meters in sequence. Due to the difficulty in manufacturing large-aperture window-sealing glass and the influence of pressure birefringence effect, the ground-based large-aperture solar telescope gradually abandons the vacuum design, and starts to adopt an open design, namely all optical devices are exposed in the environment, and meanwhile, the thermal control is performed on devices such as a thermal diaphragm, a primary mirror and the like so as to reduce the mirror surface thermal deformation and the local seeing effect.
However, both vacuum solar telescopes and open solar telescopes have some drawbacks that are difficult to overcome.
The vacuum type solar telescope lens barrel requires extremely high vacuum degree in a closed space, so that high requirements are provided for the air tightness of a telescope structure, the sealing level is limited, the telescope needs to be regularly pumped to maintain the high vacuum degree in the lens barrel (generally, pumping maintenance is needed every 1-2 weeks), and the maintenance and operation cost of the telescope is increased; because the pressure difference of near atmosphere exists inside and outside the telescope, larger pressure is formed on the telescope structure, which is not beneficial to the stability of the telescope structure; although the higher vacuum degree in the lens cone fundamentally eliminates the local seeing effect, the main mirror is directly irradiated without effective thermal control, and the larger mirror surface thermal deformation exists, so that the imaging performance of the system is influenced; in addition, because the large-caliber window sealing glass is difficult to manufacture, the application of the vacuum type solar telescope in a solar telescope with a larger caliber above a meter level is fundamentally limited.
All optical devices in the open-type solar telescope are directly exposed in the environment and directly influenced by outside rain fog and sand dust, so that the optical surface is polluted by the sand dust in a short time, and the mirror surface needs to be regularly wiped and maintained; the optical surface coating will be corroded for a long time, and the optical device needs to be re-coated and adjusted. These problems have greatly affected the operation of open sunglasses.
Based on the background, the invention provides a foundation sealing inflatable solar telescope. The sealed lens cone is adopted, so that the advantage that the vacuum solar telescope can better protect optical devices is fully utilized; by filling inert gas, the pressure difference inside and outside the lens barrel is balanced, and the structural instability caused by the pressure difference is eliminated; meanwhile, the thermal control is carried out on the thermal diaphragm and the main mirror, so that the influence of the thermal deformation of the mirror surface and the local seeing effect is greatly reduced. The invention integrates the advantages of the existing vacuum type and open type solar telescopes, effectively avoids the respective defects, and has strong innovation and practicability.
