Description
These are the preliminary results of our BVR photometric study. The quasar 1628.5+3808 is shown here only for the sake of illustration of our research. This object showed variations in the three bands. It was observed with a 1.5-meter telecope from the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional at San Pedro Mártir, México. Only non-variable field stars were taken into account to carry out the differential photometry. Problems with standard stars did not allow the calibration process.

    HARMONI at ELT: HIPOTEC electronics and control system
    HARMONI is the first light visible and near-IR integral field spectrograph for the ELT. It covers a large spectral range from 470nm to 2450nm with resolving powers from 3300 to 18000 and spatial sampling from 60 mas to 4 mas. It can operate in two Adaptive Optics modes - SCAO (including a High Contrast capability) and LTAO - or with NOAO. The

    GTCAO low-frequency tip-tilt offload to M2
    GTCAO is the instrument that implements Adaptive Optics on GTC. For atmospheric turbulence correction, GTCAO uses a deformable mirror. Unlike other AO systems, GTCAO does not include a dedicated mirror for low-frequency tip-tilt (TT) correction. In the absence of dedicated correction, the TT components of atmospheric turbulence are corrected by the
