Description
The description of the PESCA instrument control system is presented. The PESCA instrument has been designed and built with the purpose of studying the Solar Energetic Particles and the Anomalous Cosmic Rays from helium to iron in the energy range 1.5-50 MeV/uma and will be part of the Russian PHOTON satellite payload. The instrument comprises two different blocks: the PESCA Instrument Amplification and Shaping Electronics (PIASE), for the amplification and analog to digital conversion, and the PESCA Instrument Control and Acquisition System (PICAS), for the control of the whole instrument. A system has been mounted to control and test the PESCA instrument. It allows the complete control over the instrument, verification and validation of the PESCA instrument (unit tests, integration tests and system tests) and PESCA calibration, from a single PC under Linux operating system.

    Ultra-deep imaging of M33: exploring its stellar halo with broad band imaging for the first time
    The star counting technique by the PAndAS survey reveals that M33 is undergoing a tidal interaction with its massive neighbor, M31. Due to this interaction, the stellar halo of M33 shows faint tidal features. These features are only visible at extremely low surface brightness levels (i.e. >30 mag/arcsec^2). For this reason, M33 is a perfect test
