WST, the wide-field spectroscopic telescope: progress on the design of the instruments
David Lee, Joel Vernet, Elizabeth George +46
WST, the Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope is a proposed new facility that will provide a transformational gain in spectroscopic survey capability over existing facilities. The WS…
ANDES, the high-resolution spectrograph for the ELT: design and performance analysis of the YJH spectrograph
Vinooja Thurairethinam, David Lee, James Stevenson +29
The ArmazoNes high Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph (ANDES) is a powerful second-generation high-resolution spectroscopic instrument for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). The UBV…
Direct Imaging Discovery of Giant Exoplanet Pictoris d: A Decade-Long Game of Hide-and-Seek
Ben J. Sutlieff, Markus J. Bonse, Valentin Christiaens +94
We report the direct imaging discovery of a third exoplanet in the Pictoris system. We detect Pictoris d ( Pic d) in non-coronagraphic observations obtained with VLT/ERI…
WST Multi-Object Spectrograph Fiber Positioners:Development of a 32,000-Unit Precision Robotic System
Sébastien Pernecker, Maxime Rombach, Malak Galal +13
The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope Multi-Object Spectrograph requires an unprecedented fiber positioning system comprising 30'000 low-resolution and 2'000 high-resolution posit…
The gas streamer G1-2-3 in the Galactic Center
S. Gillessen, F. Eisenhauer, J. Cuadra +61
The black hole in the Galactic Center, Sgr A*, is prototypical for ultra-low-fed galactic nuclei. The discovery of a hand-full of gas clumps in the realm of a few Earth masses in i…
High-contrast spectroscopy with the new VLT/ERIS instrument: Molecular maps and radial velocity of the gas giant AF Lep b
Jean Hayoz, Markus Johannes Bonse, Felix Dannert +66
The Enhanced Resolution Imager and Spectrograph (ERIS) is the new Adaptive-Optics (AO) assisted Infrared instrument at the Very Large Telescope (VLT). Its refurbished Integral Fiel…
CUBES, the Cassegrain U-Band Efficient Spectrograph: towards final design review
Matteo Genoni, Hans Dekker, Stefano Covino +39
In the era of Extremely Large Telescopes, the current generation of 8-10m facilities are likely to remain competitive at ground-UV wavelengths for the foreseeable future. The Casse…
ANDES, the high resolution spectrograph for the ELT: science goals, project overview and future developments
A. Marconi, M. Abreu, V. Adibekyan +286
The first generation of ELT instruments includes an optical-infrared high-resolution spectrograph, indicated as ELT-HIRES and recently christened ANDES (ArmazoNes high Dispersion E…
The Enhanced Resolution Imager and Spectrograph for the VLT
R. Davies, O. Absil, G. Agapito +81
ERIS, the Enhanced Resolution Imager and Spectrograph, is an instrument that both extends and enhances the fundamental diffraction limited imaging and spectroscopy capability for t…
CUBES: a UV spectrograph for the future
S. Covino, S. Cristiani, J. M. Alcala' +86
In spite of the advent of extremely large telescopes in the UV/optical/NIR range, the current generation of 8-10m facilities is likely to remain competitive at ground-UV wavelength…
