This document summarizes the technical discussions from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) meeting held on February 12, 2013. It explores various filter configurations and corrector designs, including front-of-corrector filters, flat filters between mirrors, and fixed filter implementations. The meeting analyzed these configurations with respect to their impact on focal planes and detector performance, highlighting specific cases (A, B, C, D) and detailing trade studies on the corrector distances. This information is vital for optimizing telescope performance in astrophysical surveys.

Optic Terminology ZTF Technical Meeting Filter/ Focal Plane Corrector Window 12 flatteners 12 detectors
Filter Options ZTF Technical Meeting • Case A • Filter at the front of corrector. (Only Window and Flattener) • Case B • Flat filter between mirror and window. • Case C • Fixed filters (make the flatteners the filters, window only). • Case D • Fixed filters (make the flatteners the filters, but keep the current "filter" as a corrector).
