Development Status of Segmented Mirror Control System in Seimei Telescope

摘要

This paper briefly explains the development status of the present segmented mirror control system in Seimei telescope. Modeling and control issues in segmented mirror control are then described to share our experience. The total degrees of freedoms (DOFs) in the ring and the segments arc 57. 57 DOFs are separated into 54 non-fixed modes and 3 fixed modes. 3 fixed modes are selected by introducing the concepts of the virtual ideal mirror surface. 54 non-fixed modes are the target of the segmented mirror control system. The centralized control system (CCS) in the outer-segments-fixed method has been developed and has been successfully installed in Seimei telescope, and now scientific results are beginning to be reported.
