The Zwicky Transient Facility: Observing System
Richard Dekany, Roger M. Smith, Reed Riddle +23
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Observing System (OS) is the data collector for the ZTF project to study astrophysical phenomena in the time domain. ZTF OS is based upon the 48…
SCALA: In-situ calibration for Integral Field Spectrographs
S. Lombardo, D. Küsters, M. Kowalski +39
The scientific yield of current and future optical surveys is increasingly limited by systematic uncertainties in the flux calibration. This is the case for Type Ia supernova (SN I…
A flux calibration device for the SuperNova Integral Field Spectrograph (SNIFS)
Simona Lombardo, Greg Aldering, Akos Hoffmann +4
Observational cosmology employing optical surveys often require precise flux calibration. In this context we present SNIFS Calibration Apparatus (SCALA), a flux calibration system…
Multi-band transit observations of the TrES-2b exoplanet
D. Mislis, S. Schroter, J. H. M. M. Schmitt +2
We present a new data set of transit observations of the TrES-2b exoplanet taken in spring 2009, using the 1.2m Oskar-Luhning telescope (OLT) of Hamburg Observatory and the 2.2m te…
A proper motion study of the globular cluster M10
L. Chen, M. Geffert, J. J. Wang +2
We present the first proper motion study of M10 (NGC6254). Absolute proper motions of about 532 stars in the field of the globular cluster M10 were determined with respect to Hippa…
BUSCA: A Telescope Instrumentation for Simultaneous Imaging in 4 Optical Bands
K. Reif, K. Bagschik, K. S. de Boer +7
The "Bonn University Simultaneous CAmera" (BUSCA) is a CCD camera system which allows simultaneous direct imaging of the same sky area in four colors. The optics are designed for a…
