The FRAM robotic telescope for atmospheric monitoring at the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +377
FRAM (F/Photometric Robotic Atmospheric Monitor) is a robotic telescope operated at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina for the purposes of atmospheric monitoring using stell…
A New Method for Aerosol Measurement using Wide-field Photometry
Jan Ebr, Sergey Karpov, Jiří Eliášek +11
We present a new method to measure the vertical aerosol optical depth (VAOD) during clear nights using a wide-field imager - a CCD camera with a photographic lens on an equatorial…
FRAM telescopes and their measurements of aerosol content at the Pierre Auger Observatory and at future sites of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Petr Janeček, Jan Ebr, Jakub Juryšek +10
A FRAM (F/(Ph)otometric Robotic Atmospheric Monitor) telescope is a system of a robotic mount, a large-format CCD camera and a fast telephoto lens that can be used for atmospheric…
New developments in aerosol measurements using stellar photometry
Jan Ebr, Jakub Juryšek, Michael Prouza +11
The idea of using stellar photometry for atmospheric monitoring for optical experiments in high-energy astrophysics is seemingly straightforward, but reaching high precision of the…
OCTOCAM: A fast multichannel imager and spectrograph for the 10.4m GTC
Antonio de Ugarte Postigo, Javier Gorosabel, Paolo Spano +11
OCTOCAM is a multi-channel imager and spectrograph that has been proposed for the 10.4m GTC telescope. It will use dichroics to split the incoming light to produce simultaneous obs…
Recent GRBs observed with the 1.23m CAHA telescope and the status of its upgrade
Javier Gorosabel, Petr Kubanek, Martin Jelinek +13
We report on optical observations of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) followed up by our collaboration with the 1.23m telescope located at the Calar Alto observatory. The 1.23m telescope is…
