Turbulence nowcast for the Cerro Paranal and Cerro Armazones observatory sites
Julien Milli, Tomás Rojas, Benjamin Courtney-Barrer +4
Optical turbulence affects significantly the quality of ground-based astronomical observations. An accurate and reliable forecast of optical turbulence can help to optimise the sch…
Optical-to-NIR magnitude measurements of the Starlink LEO Darksat satellite and effectiveness of the darkening treatment
J. Tregloan-Reed, A. Otarola, E. Unda-Sanzana +11
Four observations of Starlink's LEO communication satellites, Darksat and STARLINK-1113, were conducted on two nights with two telescopes. The Chakana 0.6\,m telescope at the Ckoir…
First observations and magnitude measurement of Starlink's Darksat
J. Tregloan-Reed, A. Otarola, E. Ortiz +5
Measure the Sloan g' magnitudes of the Starlink's STARLINK-1130 (Darksat) and 1113 LEO communication satellites and determine the effectiveness of the Darksat darkening treatment a…
Measuring line-of-sight sodium density structure using laser guide stars
Joschua A. Hellemeier, Domenico Bonaccini Calia, Paul Hickson +2
The performance of adaptive optics systems employing sodium laser guide stars can be improved by continuously monitoring the vertical density structure of mesospheric sodium along…
