Description
Elmer is a multi-purpose instrument for the GTC designed for both Imaging and Spectroscopy in the visible range (365-1000 nm). Imaging will be done in a 4.2' circular Field of View (FOV), through standard SDSS broad band filters (g', r', I', and z') as well as narrow band filters (Hα broad, Hα narrow, Hβ, [OI], [OII], [OIII], [SII] broad, and [SII] narrow).

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta
