Description
We report optical photometry and spectroscopy of the candidate optical/NIR counterpart (ATEL #526, #533) to the millisecond X-ray pulsar HETE J1900.1-2455 (ATEL #516, #523, #538). Its consistency with the recent SWIFT localisation (ATEL #541) and our ground-based observations confirm its association with the X-ray source. Photometry was acquired with the FLWO 1.2m telescope (Mt. Hopkins, AZ) and the Swope 1.0m telescope (LCO, Chile) during June 20,25,26,27,30 2005 UT.

    HARMONI at ELT: HIPOTEC electronics and control system
    HARMONI is the first light visible and near-IR integral field spectrograph for the ELT. It covers a large spectral range from 470nm to 2450nm with resolving powers from 3300 to 18000 and spatial sampling from 60 mas to 4 mas. It can operate in two Adaptive Optics modes - SCAO (including a High Contrast capability) and LTAO - or with NOAO. The

    GTCAO low-frequency tip-tilt offload to M2
    GTCAO is the instrument that implements Adaptive Optics on GTC. For atmospheric turbulence correction, GTCAO uses a deformable mirror. Unlike other AO systems, GTCAO does not include a dedicated mirror for low-frequency tip-tilt (TT) correction. In the absence of dedicated correction, the TT components of atmospheric turbulence are corrected by the
