Performance advantages of buffered mode operation of HxRG near infrared detectors
Naidu Bezawada, Derek Ives, Domingo Alvarez +4
The Teledyne HxRG detectors have versatile and programmable output options to allow operation of them in a variety of configurations such as slow unbuffered, slow buffered, fast bu…
Characterisation, performance, and operational aspects of the H4RG-15 near infrared detectors for the MOONS instrument
Derek Ives, Domingo Alvarez, Naidu Bezawada +2
MOONS is a multi-object spectrograph for the ESO VLT covering a simultaneous wavelength range of 0.6-1.8 microns using approximately 1000 fibres. It uses four Teledyne Imaging Syst…
Detector Systems Engineering for Extremely Large Instruments
Elizabeth M. George, Naidu Bezawada, Derek Ives +22
The scientific detector systems for the ESO ELT first-light instruments, HARMONI, MICADO, and METIS, together will require 27 science detectors: seventeen 2.5 m cutoff H4RG-15 d…
ESPRESSO@VLT -- On-sky performance and first results
F. Pepe, S. Cristiani, R. Rebolo +97
ESPRESSO is the new high-resolution spectrograph of ESO's Very-Large Telescope (VLT). It was designed for ultra-high radial-velocity precision and extreme spectral fidelity with th…
A precise architecture characterization of the Men planetary system
M. Damasso, A. Sozzetti, C. Lovis +97
The bright star Men was chosen as the first target for a radial velocity follow-up to test the performance of ESPRESSO, the new high-resolution spectrograph at the ESO's Very-L…
Ultracool dwarf benchmarks with \emph{Gaia} primaries
F. Marocco, D. J. Pinfield, N. J. Cook +14
We explore the potential of \emph{Gaia} for the field of benchmark ultracool/brown dwarf companions, and present the results of an initial search for metal-rich/metal-poor systems.…
