Descripción
We report follow-up observations confirming the near-infrared (NIR) counterpart to the X-ray transient XTE J1747-274/IGR J17473-2721 (ATEL #467, #498). A Ks=16.2 mag candidate was suggested in ATEL #521 on the basis of its coincidence with the Chandra localization for the X-ray source. The candidate appeared extended and/or blended with a nearby NIR source to the south. Our observations consist of a series of Ks-band images obtained with the 6.5m Magellan Baade telescope between 2005 Sep 13 02:06-02:26 UT using the PANIC camera and totaling 375s on source.

    NIRPS near-infrared spectrograph: AITV phase at ESO3.6m/La Silla
    NIRPS is a fiber-fed AO nIR spectrograph working simultaneously with HARPS at the La Silla-ESO 3.6m telescope. The cryogenic spectrograph operating at 75K employs a cross-dispersed echelle grating (R4), covering a wavelength range of 0.98-1.80 microns in a single image using a Teledyne Hawaii-4RG infrared detector. In early 2022, the NIRPS
