Dynamic/Jitter Assessment of Multiple Potential HabEx Structural Designs

Abstract: The 2020 Decadal Survey in Astronomy and Astrophysics will assess candidate large missions to follow James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and Wide Field Infrared Space Telescope (WFIRST). One candidate mission is the Habitable ExoPlanet Imaging Mission (HabEx). This presentation describes two HabEx structural designs and results from structural dynamic analyses performed to predict Primary Mirror (PM) Secondary Mirror (SM) Line of Site (LOS) stability (jitter) due to Reaction Wheel Assembly (RWA…
