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…
The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST): design trade-offs for the low-resolution multi-object spectrograph instrument
Dimitri Buffat, Will Saunders, Kjetil Dohlen +10
The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a planned 12-meter-class dedicated spectroscopic facility designed to address key scientific challenges through large spectroscopic…
Progress of the design of the 12-m optical, Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST)
P. Dierickx, G. Gausachs, C. Cudennec +16
The Wide-Field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a 12-m class, Alt-Az optical telescope providing two simultaneous foci, 2 degrees and 3 by 3 arc minutes respectively, for Multi-Obj…
WST -- Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope: The Next Leap in Wide-field Spectroscopy
Roland Bacon, Olga Bellido, Philippe Dierickx +52
The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a concept for a dedicated 12-m spectroscopic survey facility designed to address some of the most important questions in astrophysic…
Guiding Design Choices for Wide-Field IFS: Trade-Offs Between Replication and Complexity for WST
C. Cudennec, A. Jeanneau, R. Bacon +7
The Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a proposed 12-meter segmented facility optimized for seeing- and Ground Layer Adaptive Optics-limited observations in the visible an…
Embedding Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in the WST Collaboration
Laurane Fréour, Anna Puglisi, Maria Cristina Fortuna +11
The proposed Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope (WST) is a next-generation telescope facility with a 12-meter primary mirror that may be operational in the 2040s. The project has a…
Robust ellipticity measurements of 29 Galactic globular clusters
Laurane Fréour, Ellen Leitinger, Elena Pancino +2
Globular clusters (GCs) exhibit varying degrees of flattening (ellipticity), which may provide insight into their internal dynamics and evolution histories. Commonly used methods t…
Designing the Community Infrastructure for ESO's Next Transformational Facility. Equitable Governance and Sustainable Teams for 2040s Astronomy
Annagrazia Puglisi, Amelia Bayo, Laurane Freour +7
The scientific ambitions of the 2040s will require large, interdisciplinary teams operating across continents, institutions, and increasingly heterogeneous political and funding la…
A vision for ground-based astronomy beyond the 2030s: How to build ESO's next big telescope sustainably
Laurane Fréour, Mathilde Bouvier, Tony Mroczkowski +8
Astronomy is the study of the Universe and all the objects that it comprises. Our attention is therefore usually focused beyond Earth, home to the only form of life known today. Ho…
Investigating black hole accretion disks as potential polluter sources for the formation of enriched stars in globular clusters
Laurane Fréour, Alice Zocchi, Glenn van de Ven +1
Accretion disks surrounding stellar mass black holes (BHs) have been suggested as potential locations for the nucleosynthesis of light elements, which are our primary observational…
1100 days in the life of the supernova 2018ibb -- The best pair-instability supernova candidate, to date
Steve Schulze, Claes Fransson, Alexandra Kozyreva +63
Abridged - Stars with ZAMS masses between 140 and are thought to explode as pair-instability supernovae (PISNe). During their thermonuclear runaway, PISNe can produce…
The magnetic field of the chemically peculiar star V352Peg
L. Fréour, C. Neiner, J. D. Landstreet +2
We present a spectropolarimetric analysis of the hot star V352Peg. We have acquired 18 spectropolarimetric observations of the star with ESPaDOnS at the CFHT between 2018 and 2019…
TOI-1749: an M dwarf with a Trio of Planets including a Near-Resonant Pair
A. Fukui, J. Korth, J. H. Livingston +65
We report the discovery of one super-Earth- (TOI-1749b) and two sub-Neptune-sized planets (TOI-1749c and TOI-1749d) transiting an early M dwarf at a distance of 100~pc, which were…
