The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: off-axis performance of PSF reconstruction
Matteo Simioni, Daniel Jodlbauer, Carmelo Arcidiacono +14
The highest scientific return, for adaptive optics (AO) observations, is achieved with a reliable reconstruction of the PSF. This is especially true for MICADO@ELT. In this present…
The pure-rotational and rotational-vibrational Raman spectrum of the atmosphere at an altitude of 23 km
F. P. A. Vogt, A. Mehner, P. Figueira +5
Ground-based optical astronomical observations supported by or in the vicinity of laser guide-star systems can be contaminated by Raman-scattered laser photons. Anticipating, allev…
The ESO's Extremely Large Telescope Working Groups
Paolo Padovani, Michele Cirasuolo, Remco van der Burg +82
Since 2005 ESO has been working with its community and industry to develop an extremely large optical/infrared telescope. ESO's Extremely Large Telescope, or ELT for short, is a re…
Instrumentation for ESO's Extremely Large Telescope
Suzanne Ramsay, Michele Cirasuolo, Paola Amico +21
Design and construction of the instruments for ESO's Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) began in 2015. We present here a brief overview of the status of the ELT Instrumentation Plan.…
Turbulence nowcast for the Cerro Paranal and Cerro Armazones observatory sites
Julien Milli, Tomás Rojas, Benjamin Courtney-Barrer +4
Optical turbulence affects significantly the quality of ground-based astronomical observations. An accurate and reliable forecast of optical turbulence can help to optimise the sch…
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…
