Description
MWC 148 is a B0pe-type star suspected to be the counterpart of the variable TeV gamma-ray source HESS J0632+057, which also shows variable radio and X-ray emission (Aharonian et al. 2007, A&A, 469, L1; Acciari et al. 2009, ApJ, 698, L94; Hinton et al. 2009, ApJ, 690, L101; Skilton et al. 2009, MNRAS, 399, 317; Falcone et al. 2009, ApJ, 708, L52). MWC 148 is thought to be a gamma-ray binary, although evidence of binarity from radial velocity measurements is still lacking (Aragona et al.

    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
