Abstract

The Herzberg Astronomy and Astrophysics Research Centre has established a comprehensive and versatile vibration measurement capability. In recent years, HAA personnel have executed a number of diverse vibration measurement projects, including recent vibration transmission measurements at Gemini South. In this paper we describe the HAA’s vibration measurement capabilities, including the equipment and experimental approaches that have been used. We will provide some illustrative examples of recent applications and results, and highlight plans for further development of our capabilities.
