Description
This document presents a proposal for the design of the LEST correlation tracker prototype. The proposed correlator, based on the absolute differences algorithm, is built around the LSI L64720 (Video Motion Estimation Processor) chip. The performances of the tracker system are established according to the LEST specifications and the experience derived from similar programmes. The design for the optomechanical support system to test the correlation tracker is also included.

    How 4MOST and MOONS will improve constraints on the dynamical masses of Local Group galaxies
    The wide-field spectrographs 4MOST and MOONS are expected to enter operations in late 2024 at the ESO Paranal Observatory. These upcoming survey facilities will play an important role in various fields over the next decade. In particular, both will host surveys aimed at observing Local Group (LG) galaxies. We describe how their scientific

    Star Formation History of the Small Magellanic Cloud: the shell-like structure
    We present the spatially resolved star formation history (SFH) of a shell-like structure located in the northeastern Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We quantitatively obtain the SFH using unprecedented deep photometric data (g ∼ 24 magnitude) from the SMASH survey and colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) fitting techniques. We consider, for the first time
