The invention belongs to the field of
astronomical telescopes, and particularly relates to a large-aperture spliced
telescope adjusting device and method, and the method comprises the steps: starting a
light source module, providing a far-field illumination
light beam for a spliced
primary mirror, and carrying out the
confocal adjustment of each sub-mirror through an adjusting mechanism according to the far-field illumination
light beam; the
light source switching module is used for providing a near-field illumination
light beam for the spliced
primary mirror, and the near-field illumination light beam is split into two separated sub light beams by the
pyramid mirror after penetrating through a splicing seam of the spliced
primary mirror; performing dispersion on all the sub-beams through a dispersion
prism, and converging the dispersed sub-beams through an
achromatic lens to form dispersion stripes; the
phase difference of the dispersion fringes is extracted through the camera, and co-
phase adjustment is carried out on the sub-mirrors through the adjusting mechanism according to the
phase difference of the dispersion fringes. According to the invention, high-precision and high-flux
spectral response calibration and co-phase detection of the large-aperture spliced
telescope can be realized, so that reliable
technical support is provided for construction and operation of a next-generation giant astronomical
telescope.
