Testing process for the WEAVE prime focus corrector lenses for the William Herschel Telescope
A new prime focus corrector for the WEAVE project for the William Herschel Telescope is being produced. The corrector consists of six lens elements, the largest...
Testing space weathering models on A-type asteroid (1951) Lick
A-type asteroid (1951) Lick has a very red visible and near-infrared reflectance spectrum, and it is one of the reddest Near-Earth objects. Its surface is...
We present near-to-mid-infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for 21 Seyfert galaxies, using subarcsecond resolution imaging data. Our aim is to compare...
Testing the AGN unification model in the infrared. First results with GTC/CanariCam
The unified model for Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) accounts for a variety of observational differences in terms of viewing geometry alone. However, from the...
Testing the anisotropy of the central engine from extended emission line regions
Predictions about the angular behavior of the emission line spectrum from the ENLR for three plausible models of the nuclear engine are presented. Results are...
Testing the Correlation between Spiral Arm Pitch Angle and Central Black Hole Mass
In order to address the "cosmic downsizing problem," or the underpopulation of highly massive quasars in the current epoch, we are exploring a correlation...
Testing the identification of p-mode frequencies in solar-like stars
The regular pattern that high n p-mode frequencies of solar-like stars show is used to design a method for a quick check to the identification of the modes. The...
Elmer is a visible imager and spectrograph for the GTC. Elmer Optics has been exhaustively tested at different steps, from the blanks to the final assemblies in...
