  • Small-ELF Telescope: opto-mechanical design and application of tensegrity
    Small-ELF is a 3.5-meter telescope currently in development that will serve as a technology demonstrator for the much larger telescope named ELF (Exo-Life Finder). The ELF is proposed to be built with a minimum effective diameter of 12- meters and is designed to be scalable to a much larger size. The primary objective of the proposed design

  • Software architecture and development plan for a 4m fully autonomous observatory (New Robotic Telescope)
    The New Robotic Telescope (NRT) is a new UK/Spain 4-m optical telescope on La Palma. When complete it will be the world's largest and fastest, fully autonomous optical observatory and is being designed to address the coming era of time-domain and transient astrophysics. We summarise the planned software architecture, presented as a complete

  • Spectrograph design for the Asgard/BIFROST spectro-interferometric instrument for the VLTI
    The BIFROST instrument will be the first VLTI instrument optimised for high spectral resolution up to R=25,000 and operate between 1.05 and 1.7 μm. A key component of the instrument will be the spectrograph, where we require a high throughput over a broad bandwidth. In this contribution, we discuss the four planned spectral modes (R=50, R=1000, R

  • Structural analysis for the EST preliminary design specifications
    This contribution presents the structural analysis that followed the preliminary design specifications of the European Solar Telescope (EST). EST is a 4-metre class telescope based on an aplanatic Gregorian configuration with an alt-azimuthal mount. The optical design has undergone several changes since the end of the conceptual phase. A finite

  • Synchronized observations with multiple detectors in GRIS: a demonstrator of an instrument for the European Solar Telescope (EST)
    This contribution describes the software and electronic improvements implemented in the GREGOR Infrared Spectrograph (GRIS) installed on the Gregor telescope. It is located at the Teide Observatory, in Tenerife, Islas Canarias, Spain. As a demonstrator for an instrument for the European Solar Telescope (EST), this project aims to perform

  • The absorbing cells for the NIR spectrograph GIANO-B@TNG
    In 2014 TNG also offered GIANO-B to the scientific community, providing a near-infrared (NIR) cross-dispersed echelle spectrograph covering 0.97 − 2.45 µm at a resolution of 50000. The possibility of simultaneously using GIANO-B together with the HARPS-N spectrograph (GIARPS observing mode) has been particularly appealing especially for the search
