Description
QUEST1 constructed a 16-chip CCD camera to be used on the 1m Schmidt telescope at the Llano del Hato National Astronomical Observatory in Venezuela. Normally operated in the drift-scan mode, an equatorial scan will expose any point on the sky for 143s and result in limiting magnitudes of B=18.5, V=19.2, and R=19.5 at S/N=10. These data were collected between 1999 February and 2001 April. (5 data files).

    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

    First on-sky tests of LQG control for a 10m-class telescope: prelude on the Gran Telescopio Canarias adaptive optics system
    The Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) is being equipped with an Adaptive Optics (AO) system, developed by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC). The Institut d'Optique Graduate School-Laboratoire Charles Fabry (IOGS-LCF), through a collaboration with the IAC, integrated some high performance control solutions. In this proceeding, we present
