Hardware and software for a robotic network of telescopes - SONG
M. F. Andersen, F. Grundahl, J. Christensen-Dalsgaard +7
SONG aims at setting up a network of small 1m telescopes around the globe to observe stars uninterrupted throughout days, weeks and even months. This paper describes the fundamenta…
The SONG prototype: Efficiency of a robotic telescope
M. F. Andersen, F. Grundahl, A. H. Beck +1
The Stellar Observations Network Group prototype telescope at the Teide Observatory has been operating in scientific mode since March 2014. The first year of observations has entir…
Conducting the SONG: The robotic nature and efficiency of a fully automated telescope
M. Fredslund Andersen, R. Handberg, E. Weiss +4
We present a description of "the Conductor", an automated software package which handles all observations at the first Stellar Observations Network Group (SONG) node telescope at t…
State of the Field: Extreme Precision Radial Velocities
Debra Fischer, Guillem Anglada-Escude, Pamela Arriagada +53
The Second Workshop on Extreme Precision Radial Velocities defined circa 2015 the state of the art Doppler precision and identified the critical path challenges for reaching 10 cm/…
The Two-Colour EMCCD Instrument for the Danish 1.54m Telescope and SONG
Jesper Skottfelt, D. M. Bramich, M. Hundertmark +13
We report on the implemented design of a two-colour instrument based on electron multiplying CCD (EMCCD) detectors. This instrument is currently installed at the Danish 1.54m teles…
High Frame-rate Imaging Based Photometry, Photometric Reduction of Data from Electron-multiplying Charge Coupled Devices (EMCCDs)
Kennet B. W. Harpsøe, Uffe G. Jørgensen, Michael I. Andersen +1
The EMCCD is a type of CCD that delivers fast readout times and negligible readout noise, making it an ideal detector for high frame rate applications which improve resolution, lik…
