Visplot: A visibility plot and observation scheduling tool for astronomical observatories
Emanuel Gafton, Illa R. Losada
We present Visplot, a free and open-source tool designed for interactive construction and refinement of nightly telescope observing schedules through a graphical user interface. Th…
The WEAVE acquisition and guiding software: pattern recognition-based acquisition and multi-fibre guiding
Emanuel Gafton, Gavin B. Dalton, Don Carlos Abrams +19
We present the architecture, implementation, and on-sky validation of the fully automated acquisition and guiding system (AG) developed for the WEAVE instrument on the William Hers…
The WEAVE-TwiLight-Survey: Expanding WEAVE's Reach to Bright and Low-Surface-Density Targets with a Novel Observing Mode
Thomas Hajnik, Nicholas A. Walton, Giuseppe D'Ago +28
Current-day multi-object spectroscopic surveys are often limited in their ability to observe bright stars due to their low surface densities, resulting in increased observational o…
A fast recursive coordinate bisection tree for neighbour search and gravity
Emanuel Gafton, Stephan Rosswog
We introduce our new binary tree code for neighbour search and gravitational force calculations in an N-particle system. The tree is built in a "top-down" fashion by "recursive coo…
