Descripción
During the GTC integration phase, the Commissioning Instrument (CI) will be a diagnostic tool for performance verification. The CI features four operation modes-imaging, pupil imaging, Curvature WFS, and high resolution Shack-Hartmann WFS. After the GTC Commissioning we also plan to install a Pyramid WFS. This instrument can therefore serve as a test bench for comparing co-phasing methods for ELTs on a real segmented telescope. In this paper we made a general instrument overview.

    Local seeing analysis for the European Solar Telescope
    The European Solar Telescope (EST) will be built at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, a site known for its excellent atmospheric seeing conditions. The fundamental design of EST lies on two premises to improve the local seeing: placing the primary mirror as far as possible from the ground layer and using an open-air configuration. In

    First on-sky tests of LQG control for a 10m-class telescope: prelude on the Gran Telescopio Canarias adaptive optics system
    The Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) is being equipped with an Adaptive Optics (AO) system, developed by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC). The Institut d'Optique Graduate School-Laboratoire Charles Fabry (IOGS-LCF), through a collaboration with the IAC, integrated some high performance control solutions. In this proceeding, we present
