Descripción
The FastCam instrument platform, jointly developed by the IAC and the
UPCT, allows, in real-time, acquisition, selection and storage of images
with a resolution that reaches the diffraction limit of medium-sized
telescopes. FastCam incorporates a specially designed software package
to analyse series of tens of thousands of images in parallel with the
data acquisition at the telescope. Wide FastCam is a new instrument
that, using the same software for data acquisition, does not look for
lucky imaging but fast observations in a much larger field of view. Here
we describe the commissioning process and first observations with Wide
FastCam at the Telescopio Carlos Sanchez (TCS) in the Observatorio del
Teide.
