Optics of the instrument Elmer for the GTC 10-m telescope
Elmer is a visible imager and spectrograph for the Gran Telescopio Canarias, which has been designed in-house. The major features and some of the analysis done...
Optimisation of the WEAVE target assignment algorithm
WEAVE is the new wide-field spectroscopic facility for the prime focus of the William Herschel Telescope in La Palma, Spain. Its fibre positioner is essential...
Optimising rapid autonomous transient classifications with the New Robotic Telescope
The New Robotic Telescope (NRT), the 4-metre, next-generation Liverpool Telescope (LT), will be located on La Palma, Canary Islands. The design and development...
Optimizing TESS short cadence aperture for Asteroseismology of solar-like stars
Thanks to missions such as CoRoT and Kepler/K2, asteroseismology has demonstrated that it is a powerful tool to determine precise stellar parameters. Now, with...
Optomechanical integration of the MCAO prototype testbed for EST
Once the design phase of the Multi-Conjugated Adaptive Optics (MCAO) testbed for the European Solar Telescope (EST) is completed, the system has been assembled...
For the past 6 years the authors have been measuring the radial velocity of the M-giant component of symbiotic stars with high dispersion echelle spectrographs...
Orbitally-modulated emission line profiles from non-Keplerian accretion disks.
Under the assumption of a vanishingly small pressure and a small viscosity accretion disk in a close binary system, gas streamlines are calculated via an...
Orbitally-modulated optical and UV emissions from SS Cygni in quiescence.
The authors present the orbitally-modulated UV and optical emissions from SS Cygni in quiescence, essentially based on their multifrequency observations with a...
