Performance characterization and near-realtime monitoring of MUSE adaptive optics modes at Paranal
T. Wevers, F. J. Selman, A. Reyes +13
The Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) is an integral field spectrograph on the Very Large Telescope Unit Telescope 4, capable of laser guide star assisted and tomographic ad…
Infrared tip-tilt sensing: on-sky experience, lessons learned and unsolved problems
Marcos A. van Dam, Sylvain Oberti, Johann Kolb +3
Infrared tip-tilt sensors (IR TTSs) have been deployed on three different laser guide star adaptive optics (AO) systems on three different telescopes. These IR TTS benefit from the…
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.…
Adaptive optics design status of MAORY, the MCAO system of European ELT
Lorenzo Busoni, Guido Agapito, Cedric Plantet +5
MAORY is the Multi-conjugate Adaptive Optics RelaY for the European ELT aimed at providing a 1 arcmin corrected field to MICADO, a near-infrared spectro-imager with a focus on astr…
MAORY AO performances
Guido Agapito, Cedric Plantet, Lorenzo Busoni +7
The Multi-conjugate Adaptive Optics RelaY (MAORY) should provide 30% SR in K band (50% goal) on half of the sky at the South Galactic Pole. Assessing its performance and the sensit…
An image of the dust sublimation region in the nucleus of NGC 1068
GRAVITY Collaboration, O. Pfuhl, R. Davies +40
We present near-infrared interferometric data on the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, obtained with the GRAVITY instrument on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Inter…
