Nightside condensation of iron in an ultra-hot giant exoplanet
David Ehrenreich, Christophe Lovis, Romain Allart +94
Ultra-hot giant exoplanets receive thousands of times Earth's insolation. Their high-temperature atmospheres (>2,000 K) are ideal laboratories for studying extreme planetary climat…
Adaptive Data Reduction Workflows for Astronomy -- The ESO Data Processing System (EDPS)
Wolfram Freudling, Stefano Zampieri, Lodovico Coccato +4
Astronomical data reduction is usually done with processing pipelines that consist of a series of individual processing steps that can be executed stand-alone. These processing ste…
The SINFONI pipeline
Andrea Modigliani, Wolfgang Hummel, Roberto Abuter +11
The SINFONI data reduction pipeline, as part of the ESO-VLT Data Flow System, provides recipes for Paranal Science Operations, and for Data Flow Operations at Garching headquarters…
Fundamental physics with Espresso: Towards an accurate wavelength calibration for a precision test of the fine-structure constant
Tobias M. Schmidt, Paolo Molaro, Michael T. Murphy +56
Observations of metal absorption systems in the spectra of distant quasars allow to constrain a possible variation of the fine-structure constant throughout the history of the Univ…
A Flexible and Modular Data Reduction Library for Fiber-fed Echelle Spectrographs
Danuta Sosnowska, Christophe Lovis, Pedro Figueira +4
Within the ESPRESSO project a new flexible data reduction library is being built. ESPRESSO, the Echelle SPectrograph for Rocky Exoplanets and Stable Spectral Observations is a fibe…
The Physical Model in Action: Quality Control for X-Shooter
Sabine Moehler, Paul Bristow, Florian Kerber +2
The data reduction pipeline for the VLT 2nd generation instrument X-Shooter uses a physical model to determine the optical distortion and derive the wavelength calibration. The par…
Reflex: Scientific Workflows for the ESO Pipelines
Pascal Ballester, Daniel Bramich, Vincenzo Forchi +5
The recently released Reflex scientific workflow environment supports the interactive execution of ESO VLT data reduction pipelines. Reflex is based upon the Kepler workflow engine…
