Descripción
We report the discovery of the optical counterpart to the X-ray transient XTE J1748-361 using the 6.5m Magellan-Clay telescope at Las Campanas Observatory. Several 5-minute images in the V and R bands were obtained using the MagIC camera on May 31 as well as November 9 2003 when the object was reported in outburst (ATEL #204). Seeing conditions were 0.8-1.0 arcsec across a field of view of 2.4'x2.4' at 0.069 arcsec/pixel.

    ANDES, the high-resolution spectrograph for the ELT: design of the adaptive optics system
    ANDES,the high resolution spectrograph for the ELT, will work both in seeing limited mode and with Adaptive Optics (AO) correction. ANDES-SCAO is a single conjugated AO system working with natural guide stars, feeding the IFU coupled to the YJH spectrograph. The main science goal of the ANDES AO mode is the characterization of the exo-planet
