Description
We obtained simultaneously recorded time series of broadband images of a sunspot close to the disk center at the German Vacuum Tower Telescope, Tenerife, in two wavelength bands at 0.56 μm and 1.55 μm. Maps of brightness difference images Tb(1.55 μm) and Tb(0.56 μm) were computed for the best image pairs. Furthermore, a scatter plot of the brightness temperatures was made where five different magnetic and nonmagnetic regions - quiet region (QR), faculae, pores, penumbra, and umbra - in the field of view can be clearly distinguished. Pores as well as the penumbra are surrounded by the facular regions consisting of several single facular elements. However, facular regions are also found in non-magnetic vicinity.

    ANDES, the high resolution spectrograph for the ELT: science goals, project overview, and future developments
    The first generation of ELT instruments includes an optical-infrared high resolution spectrograph, indicated as ELT-HIRES and recently christened ANDES (ArmazoNes high Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph). ANDES consists of three fibre-fed spectrographs ([U]BV, RIZ, YJH) providing a spectral resolution of ∼100,000 with a minimum simultaneous wavelength

    An overview of the preliminary optical design of the European Solar Telescope (EST)
    The European Solar Telescope (EST) is a 4-m class-solar telescope that will become part of the next generation of groundbased facilities. Located at the "Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos" in La Palma (Spain), it will be aimed to study the magnetic connectivity of the solar atmosphere with high spatial and temporal resolution.

    ANDES, the high-resolution spectrograph for the ELT: UBV spectrograph preliminary design
    We present the design of the ANDES UBV module, the bluest spectrograph of the ANDES instrument. It is a fiber-fed high resolution, high stability spectrograph, which will be installed on the ELT-Nasmyth platform to minimize blue fibre losses from the focal plane to the spectrograph. In this paper we present the status of development of the
