Large telescopes require a very precise calibration in order to maximize its scientific output. Current catalogues of standard stars are generally too bright for 10m telescopes. For GTC we are planning to produce a catalogue with calibration stars which are suitable for this telescope. In this paper we describe the first steps of the GTC

First Steps Towards the Electronic Inversion of the Radiative Transfer Equation
The radiative transfer equation (RTE) gives us information about how the light streams through the medium. It must be inverted in order to obtain the properties of the medium that generated the observation. While there are a number of well discussed methods to approach the solution of the inversion, none of them is suitable for the real-time

First T dwarfs in the VISTA Hemisphere Survey
Aims: The aim of the project is to improve our current knowledge of the density of T dwarfs and the shape of the substellar initial mass function by identifying a magnitude-limited sample of T dwarfs in the full southern sky. Methods: We present the results of a photometric search aimed at discovering cool brown dwarfs in the southern sky imaged at

Five young star clusters in the outer region of the Small Magellanic Cloud
Colour-magnitude diagrams in the Washington system are presented for the first time for five star clusters projected on to the outer region of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The clusters are found to have ages in the range 0.1-1.0 Gyr, as derived from the fit of isochrones with Z = 0.004. This sample increases substantially the number of young

Flux Emergence at the Photosphere
To model the emergence of magnetic fields at the photosphere, we carried out 3D magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) simulations using the MURaM code. Our simulations take into account the effects of compressibility, energy exchange via radiative transfer and partial ionization in the equation of state. All these physical ingredients are essential for a
