(1) The search for starlight reflected from hot Jupiters. Dr. Florian Rodler To date, more than 300 extrasolar planets have been found, and their atmospheres...
Current projects for large telescopes demand a proper knowledge of atmospheric turbulence to design efficient adaptive optics systems in order to reach large...
García-Lorenzo et al. presented a complete study of atmospheric parameters relevant for adaptive optics in relation to wind speed at the Teide Observatory...
The main goal of this work is to analyse new approaches to the study of the properties of astronomical sites. In particular, satellite data measuring aerosols...
In the past years, intensive Site Characterization campaigns have been performed to chose the sites for the future giant ELTs. Various atmospheric turbulence...
We present a comparison between in situ measurements and forecasted data at the Observatorio del Roque de Los Muchachos. Forecasting is obtained with the...
Over 30 years of solar data have been acquired by the Birmingham Solar Oscillations Network (BiSON), an international network of telescopes used to study...
We present the largest data base so far of atmospheric optical turbulence profiles [197 035 individual C2N(h)] for an astronomical site, the Roque de los...
Atmospheric scintillation caused by optical turbulence in the Earth's atmosphere can be the dominant source of noise in ground-based photometric observations of...
