VSTPOL: making the VST a large survey telescope for optical polarimetry
P. Schipani, S. Covino, F. Snik +30
Since the start of operations in 2011, the VLT Survey Telescope (VST) has been one of the most efficient wide-field imagers in the optical bands. However, in the next years the Ver…
Final Alignment and Image Quality Test for the Acquisition and Guiding System of SOXS
J. A. Araiza-Duran, G. Pignata, A. Brucalassi +50
SOXS (Son Of X-Shooter) will be the new medium-resolution (R 4500 for 1 slit), high-efficiency, wide-band spectrograph for the ESO NTT at La Silla Observatory, Chile. It will be de…
Characterisation and assessment of the SOXS Spectrograph UV-VIS Detector System
R. Cosentino, M. Hernandez, H. Ventura +50
The SOXS spectrograph, designed for the ESO NTT telescope, operates in both the optical (UV-VIS: 350-850 nm) and NIR (800-2000 nm) bands. This article provides an overview of the f…
Walking with SOXS towards the transient sky
P. Schipani, S. Campana, R. Claudi +59
SOXS (Son Of X-Shooter) is the new ESO instrument that is going to be installed on the 3.58-m New Technology Telescope at the La Silla Observatory. SOXS is a single object spectrog…
Software solutions for numerical modeling of wide-field telescopes
Salvatore Savarese, Pietro Schipani, Giulio Capasso +6
This paper presents an integrated modeling software to analyze the PSF of wide-field telescopes affected by misalignments. Even relatively small misalignments in the optical system…
The new SOXS instrument for the ESO NTT
P. Schipani, R. Claudi, S. Campana +28
SOXS (Son Of X-Shooter) will be a unique spectroscopic facility for the ESO-NTT 3.5-m telescope in La Silla (Chile), able to cover the optical/NIR band (350-1750 nm). The design fo…
