Description

Telescope control device, system, method, storage medium, program and application
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of observation of astronomical transient sources, and particularly relates to a telescope control device, a telescope control system, a telescope control method, a telescope control storage medium, a telescope control program and application.
Background
In recent years, observation and study of astronomical transient sources have become increasingly important in the study of modern time domain astronomy. Transient source refers to a sporadic, transient, aperiodic astronomical phenomenon. From observation, it lasts on a time scale from seconds to weeks or even months. At present, known transient sources mainly include astronomical events such as supernova, gamma storm, micro-gravity lens, black hole collapsed stars and electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational waves. Gamma-ray burst (GRB), referred to as Gamma storm, is a typical source celestial body of transients. It is a phenomenon of sudden enhancement of short-time-scale gamma rays from deep in the universe and is also the most violent explosion phenomenon after a major explosion in the universe. The duration of the light source according to the duration time scale T90 (the time of photon number accumulation counting from 5% to 95%) can be divided into two types of long storm (T90>2s) and short storm (T90<2 s). It is generally believed that long storms originate from the collapse of large mass stars, while short storms originate from the union of double dense stars. In addition to the transient gamma radiation, after its exposure there is also an afterglow phenomenon in the X-ray, optical and radio-electric bands, which lasts on a timescale that can range from weeks to months and even up to years. Therefore, the generation processes of dense celestial bodies, gravitational wave radiation, relativistic shock waves and extremely high-energy cosmic rays can be further researched by researching the gamma storm and the afterexposure phenomenon thereof, and the work of carrying out high-precision inspection on the basic physical principle can be further researched. Since gamma-ray is difficult to predict both temporally and spatially, high frequency all-day monitoring is required with large field-of-view optical telescopes in order to be able to capture the signal in time. With the development of modern astronomical observation technology and data processing technology, more and more transient source celestial bodies are detected, which also makes the observation and research of the transient source become the focus of astronomical attention.
At present, a Wide-field transient source sky-tracking device foundation Wide-Angle Camera array (GWAC) of a national astronomical platform prosperous base is built for the sky-tracking observation and research of a transient source celestial body. GWAC is used primarily to observe optical band radiation within 5 minutes before and 15 minutes after an outbreak of GRB. The system consists of 40 wide-angle telescopes with the aperture of 18 cm, the visual field of each telescope can reach 150 square degrees, scientific grade CCD cameras with large target surfaces (4k x 4k) are all equipped, and the total visual field can reach 5000 square degrees. Therefore, 2 telescopes and 40 telescopes which are arranged on each rack need 20 racks, and compared with the whole system, the structure improves the flexibility of the system, but increases the difficulty of controlling the system, and greatly increases the construction cost of the system. Therefore, it is very important to design a new construction method of the telescope group.
In order to perform the observation and research of the transient source celestial body on the sky, scientific researchers in China have proposed to use a wide-angle camera array to carry out related research. One of The related arts, The mini-GWAC optical focus-up of transient angles from The O2 cameras and projects for The up communications O3run, res.astron.astrophys,20(1),13(2020), national astronomy base proposed to build Wide-field transient source sky equipment base Wide Angle Camera array (GWAC) for relevant work research. GWAC is used primarily to observe optical band radiation within 5 minutes before and 15 minutes after an outbreak of GRB. The system consists of 40 wide-angle telescopes with the aperture of 18 cm, the visual field of each telescope can reach 150 square degrees, scientific grade CCD cameras with large target surfaces (4k x 4k) are all equipped, and the total visual field can reach 5000 square degrees. Currently, relevant research data has been obtained using this system.
The implementation scheme of the prior art I is as follows: a Ground Wide Angle Camera array (GWAC) is composed of 40 Wide-Angle telescopes with the aperture of 18 cm, the visual field of each telescope can reach 150 square degrees, scientific grade CCD cameras with large target surfaces (4k × 4k) are equipped, and the total visual field can reach 5000 square degrees. The observation plan is distributed through the main control system, each observation subsystem (single telescope) is started to observe different sky areas, and original images are obtained. And after the acquired image is subjected to data processing, identifying the acquired image according to the dynamic threshold value change range. If the dynamic threshold value change range does not exceed the set value, determining that no new target is found, and acquiring the image again; and if the dynamic threshold exceeds a set value, the target is considered to be a candidate target, multi-frame acquisition is carried out on the target, the obtained image is sent to a scientific center for further identification and judgment, and the matched target image is stored in a database, so that the development of subsequent scientific research is facilitated.
The first shortcoming of the prior art is that in order to realize a telescope array system with a large view field and a whole day area, the system selects a structural arrangement that every 2 telescopes are placed on one machine frame, and the whole set of system has 20 sets of machine frame devices. Although the flexibility of a single device is increased, the following disadvantages still exist: the overall control difficulty of the control system is increased, the requirement on the performance of the main control equipment is higher, and the response time of the system is longer; the system has higher construction cost;
through the above analysis, the problems and defects of the prior art are as follows: the difficulty of a control system of the existing telescope is high, and the response time of the system is long; the system is costly to construct.
The difficulty in solving the above problems and defects is: the GWAC system mainly comprises 20 sets of subsystems, the system is relatively complex in structure, the 20 sets of subsystems need to respectively respond, and the system response time is long; meanwhile, the system is not easy to be controlled in a centralized way because the system has more constitutional units. How to improve the response speed of the system and realize centralized control is difficult.
The cost of the whole structure of the system is high, and compared with the technical scheme, the cost is at least 1-2 times higher.
The significance of solving the problems and the defects is as follows: for the transient source celestial body, the requirement on the response speed of the system is extremely high, and in order to detect the signal of the transient source celestial body more timely, the scheme forms a unified integral structure, so that the system structure is more compact (the occupied area is larger)<20m2) The automatic searching function of the system can be started only by one command signal without independent operation of each subsystem,the response time of the system is shortened, the composition of the system is simplified, and the composition cost of the system is greatly reduced.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention provides a telescope control device, a telescope control system, a telescope control method, a telescope control storage medium, a telescope control program and application.
The invention is realized in such a way that a telescope control method comprises the following steps:
in the first step, 8 sets of optical telescope systems are uniformly fixed on a multifunctional turntable, 360-degree rotation is realized, and uninterrupted scanning of a whole day area is realized.
Secondly, 4 sets of telescope systems realize the work of scanning and searching the transient source celestial body at a low elevation angle and a broadband, and the work of scanning and searching the transient source at a high elevation angle and a zenith is finished by 4 sets (2 sets each) of optical telescopes arranged on the base 2 in a pitching scanning mode;
and thirdly, realizing real-time monitoring and searching work of the whole day area on the transient source celestial body by optimizing control and image processing software and utilizing the layout of the telescope device.
And (3) image processing:
the observation modes include the following two types: if the lens is kept still, for the position information of a transient source, the difference image of two continuous frame images of the position information can obviously change at the position and is marked as a, and the difference image of the second frame image and the third frame image can not have a difference value-a for offsetting the change at the position; and because noise appears randomly, if a significant difference b appears in two continuous frames of pictures, and a difference value of-b appears in the second frame of pictures and the third frame of pictures, which indicates that the values of the third frame of pictures and the first frame of pictures at the position are the same, the change represented in the second frame is probably noise rather than a transient source. Applying this property, several frames can be observed in succession after a significant difference occurs to determine whether it is noise or a transient source celestial body. If the lens moves to track the moving target, before the two frames of pictures are subjected to difference processing, the translation lengths of the second frame of picture along the horizontal direction and the vertical direction need to be considered, the pictures need to be realigned and then subjected to difference processing, and for pixel points existing in the second frame of picture but not existing in the first frame, the processing with the next frame of picture needs to be waited. At this point, the images observed by the first set of telescopes are saved, and the images acquired by the second set of telescopes are compared with the images acquired by the first set of telescopes. By the optimization mode, the operation of repeated observation of a single set of telescope is omitted, the observation time is shortened, and the speed of target identification is increased.
In addition, the observation strategy of the telescope plays a very important role in the detection of the target, and the whole day area is monitored in a wide area mode by adopting a longitudinal M-shaped scanning mode and a transverse Z-shaped scanning mode respectively, and the scanning path schematic diagram is shown. Through researching the parameters such as the rotation parameter of the rotary table of the telescope, the pitching parameter, the exposure time of the camera and the like, the telescope control parameter and the camera parameter which are suitable for monitoring the gamma storm transient source celestial body in the whole day area are obtained, and the detection probability of the transient source celestial body is improved. FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of observation by using "M" type and "Z" type observation strategies, respectively. The classical transient source search process is shown in fig. 9.
Further, the telescope control method realizes telescope optical systems with different monitoring fields of view by changing the size, the material and the structure of optical lenses of the telescope; the adjustment of the monitoring sky area of a single set of telescope is realized by changing the number of the telescopes.
Further, the telescope control method 2 is characterized in that the field of view of each optical telescope is 14 degrees or 14 degrees.

The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the experimental results.
FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of observation by using "M" type and "Z" type observation strategies, respectively. The classical transient source searching process is shown in fig. 9, and the main principle is that by subtracting the observation image (a) from the template image (b), if it is a transient source (i.e. a new source), an image similar to a complete point source appears in the subtracted residual image (c), such as o1 and o2 in fig. 9, and other incomplete image spots are noise generated in the subtracting process, such as n1, n2 and n3 in fig. 9 (c). Therefore, how to automatically and rapidly identify the transient source in the residual image from the surrounding noise is one of the key problems to be solved by the technical solution. Simulating and constructing a more real training sample algorithm by using an actual star image profile based on new characteristic parameters such as an isocratic measurement star image profile; and adding methods such as noise filtering criterion based on measured data analysis and the like to realize an optimized rapid automatic identification system of the transient source.
Fig. 10 is a photograph of an actual shot using the present technique to perform transient source search.
Fig. 10 shows the result of a whole day area scanning search initially observed by this solution.
