Descripción
The MAGIC telescope, with many technological innovations which allow the telescope to have a low energy threshold and a very fast slewing time, could be one of the first ground based experiments able to see transient phenomena like Gamma Ray Bursts. In this paper we present a study on the MAGIC telescope possibilities to observe GRBs, obtaining a result of 0.5 ÷ 2 observable GRBs per year.

    HARMONI at ELT: HIPOTEC electronics and control system
    HARMONI is the first light visible and near-IR integral field spectrograph for the ELT. It covers a large spectral range from 470nm to 2450nm with resolving powers from 3300 to 18000 and spatial sampling from 60 mas to 4 mas. It can operate in two Adaptive Optics modes - SCAO (including a High Contrast capability) and LTAO - or with NOAO. The

    GTCAO low-frequency tip-tilt offload to M2
    GTCAO is the instrument that implements Adaptive Optics on GTC. For atmospheric turbulence correction, GTCAO uses a deformable mirror. Unlike other AO systems, GTCAO does not include a dedicated mirror for low-frequency tip-tilt (TT) correction. In the absence of dedicated correction, the TT components of atmospheric turbulence are corrected by the
