Description
The prototype SONG node, SONG-OT, is currently being installed and tested at Observatory del Teide on Tenerife. SONG will be a global network of 1-m robotic telescopes, equipped with a high-resolution échelle spectrograph and dual-colour lucky imaging cameras. The network will be devoted to the seismic study of bright stars and characterisation of low-mass planets. We present the current status of the network in general and the SONG-OT node in particular.

The principal objectives of this project are: 1) to study the structure and dynamics of the solar interior, 2) to extend this study to other stars (either single or in binary systems), 3) to search for extrasolar planets using photometric methods (primarily by transits of their host stars) and their characterization with complementary radial

    Context. The Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154 has exhibited prolific high-energy (HE) bursting activity in recent years. Aims. Investigating its potential tera-electronvolt counterpart could provide insights into the underlying mechanisms of magnetar emission and very high-energy (VHE) processes in extreme astrophysical environments. We aim to

    Context. Debris disks ─ collisionally sustained belts of dust and sometimes gas around main sequence stars ─ are remnants of planet formation processes and are found in systems ≳10 Myr old. Millimeter-wavelength observations are particularly important, as the grains probed by these observations are not strongly affected by radiation pressure and
