The AMBRE Project: Parameterisation of FGK-type stars from the ESO:HARPS archived spectra
Marco De Pascale, C. Clare Worley, Patrick de Laverny +3
The AMBRE project is a collaboration between the European Southern Observatory (ESO) and the Observatoire de la Cote d'Azur (OCA). It has been established to determine the stellar…
Pathfinder first light: alignment, calibration, and commissioning of the LINC-NIRVANA ground-layer adaptive optics subsystem
Derek Kopon, Al Conrad, Carmelo Arcidiacono +15
We present descriptions of the alignment and calibration tests of the Pathfinder, which achieved first light during our 2013 commissioning campaign at the LBT. The full LINC-NIRVAN…
The INAF ASTRI Project in the framework of CTA
N. La Palombara, P. Caraveo, M. Fiorini +9
The ASTRI project aims to develop, in the framework of the Cherenkov Telescope Array, an end-to-end prototype of the small-size telescope, devoted to the investigation of the energ…
The PLATO Simulator: modelling of high-precision high-cadence space-based imaging
P. Marcos-Arenal, W. Zima, J. De Ridder +8
Many aspects of the design trade-off of a space-based instrument and its performance can best be tackled through simulations of the expected observations. The complex interplay of…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: processing of the FLAMES-UVES spectra
G. G. Sacco, L. Morbidelli, E. Franciosini +49
The Gaia-ESO Survey is a large public spectroscopic survey that aims to derive radial velocities and fundamental parameters of about 10^5 Milky Way stars in the field and in cluste…
