Context: The Groth field is one of the sky regions that will be targeted by the OTELO (OSIRIS Tunable Filter Emission Line Object) survey in the optical 820 nm and 920 nm atmospheric windows. A complementary broad-band photometric catalogue of the field is essential for several purposes, in particular the inequivocal identification of sources

We present precise optical and near-infrared ground-based photometry of two globular clusters (GCs): ω Cen and 47 Tuc. These photometric catalogs are unbiased in the red giant branch (RGB) region close to the tip. We provide new estimates of the RGB tip (TRGB) magnitudes-mI(TRGB)=9.84+/-0.05, ω Cen; mI(TRGB)=9.46+/-0.06, 47 Tuc-and use these to

Ultra-compact nuclear rings (UCNRs) can be defined as those galactic circumnuclear rings with a radius inferior to 200 parsecs [1]. Because very high spatial resolution is needed, this population has not been studied systematically until now. One important issue that has to be solved is whether UCNRs have an origin similar to larger circumnuclear

The detection of the Very High Energy (VHE) emission from Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) is desired, as it will provide an unprecedented opportunity to enlighten the nature of the central engine and the interaction between the relativistic flow and the environment of the burst progenitor. Thanks to its large reflector size, high quantum efficiency
