Description
FRIDA (inFRared Imager and Dissector for the Adaptive optics system of the GTC) will be a NIR (1-2.5 μm) imager and Integral Field Unit spectrograph to operate with the Adaptive Optics system of the 10.4 m GTC telescope. FRIDA will offer broad and narrow band diffraction-limited imaging and integral field spectroscopy at low, intermediate and high spectral resolution. The Extragalactic Astrophysics and Astronomical Instrumentation group of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (GUAIX) is developing the Data Reduction Pipeline for FRIDA. Specific tools for converting output, reduced datacubes to the standard Euro3D FITS format will be developed, in order to allow users to exploit existing VO applications for analysis. FRIDA is to be commissioned on the telescope in 2011.

    MAAT: an IFU for GTC optimized using spectrograph wavefront measurements and superoptimization
    The Mirror-slicer Array for Astronomical Transients (MAAT) is an IFU now being manufactured for the OSIRIS spectrograph on the 10.4-m GRANTECAN (GTC) telescope at La Palma. It is based on the Advanced Image Slicer (AIS) concept as are MUSE and KMOS on the VLT (among many others). Very significant changes to the design had to be made due in part to

    JWST observations of Chiron: A unique active Centaur beyond 18 AU
    Chiron is the second-largest Centaur, with an effective diameter of 210 km, and is among the most well-studied minor bodies in the middle and outer Solar System. Notably, Chiron belongs to the enigmatic subpopulation of active Centaurs and has displayed cometary activity several times since its discovery. In March 2021, Chiron underwent an outburst

    FRIDA: diffraction-limited imaging and integral-field spectroscopy for the GTC
    FRIDA is a diffraction-limited imager and integral-field spectrograph for the adaptive-optics focus of the Gran Telescopio Canarias. In imaging mode FRIDA provides scales of 10, 20 and 40 mas/pixel and in IFS mode spectral resolutions of about 1200, 4000 and 30,000. Coronographic masks are available in both modes for highcontrast images. FRIDA is
