Description
Line-of-sight velocity fields in an irregular sunspot (NOAA 8990) have been determined from Stokes-I spectra of the line Fe I 630.15 nm, obtained with the La Palma Stokes Polarimeter at the Swedish Vacuum Solar Telescope on May 13, 2000. We show and discuss the resulting velocity maps, the dependence of velocities on the continuum intensities, and the correlation between velocities and line asymmetries.

    JWST observations of Chiron: A unique active Centaur beyond 18 AU
    Chiron is the second-largest Centaur, with an effective diameter of 210 km, and is among the most well-studied minor bodies in the middle and outer Solar System. Notably, Chiron belongs to the enigmatic subpopulation of active Centaurs and has displayed cometary activity several times since its discovery. In March 2021, Chiron underwent an outburst

    MAAT: an IFU for GTC optimized using spectrograph wavefront measurements and superoptimization
    The Mirror-slicer Array for Astronomical Transients (MAAT) is an IFU now being manufactured for the OSIRIS spectrograph on the 10.4-m GRANTECAN (GTC) telescope at La Palma. It is based on the Advanced Image Slicer (AIS) concept as are MUSE and KMOS on the VLT (among many others). Very significant changes to the design had to be made due in part to

    Lightweight metal mirrors manufactured by AM applied to astronomical instrumentation: first steps towards all-in-one opto-mechanical components
    Additive Manufacture (AM) comprises a group of technologies that allow to go from a 3D model to manufactured components, creating them layer by layer until the part is complete [1]. Among the advantages of AM, the ones that apply most to astronomical instrumentation are part complexity and consolidation, the addition of functionalities, design
