Description
Since the discovery of the first extrasolar planet 51 Pegb [1] more than 190 extrasolar planets have been detected in orbit around other stars by means of precise stellar radial velocity (RV) measurements. But all RV surveys are concentrating almost entirely on solar-type stars covering only a narrow spectral and stellar mass range (spectral type F8-K1, 0.7-1.3 M &sun;) and up to now only six substellar companions around the intermediate mass stars HD 47536 [2], HD 104985 [3], γ Cep [4], HD 11977 [5], HD 13189 [6], and β Gem [7] have been identified. Interestingly, all these planets have masses of several Jupiter masses.

    Local seeing analysis for the European Solar Telescope
    The European Solar Telescope (EST) will be built at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, a site known for its excellent atmospheric seeing conditions. The fundamental design of EST lies on two premises to improve the local seeing: placing the primary mirror as far as possible from the ground layer and using an open-air configuration. In

    First on-sky tests of LQG control for a 10m-class telescope: prelude on the Gran Telescopio Canarias adaptive optics system
    The Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) is being equipped with an Adaptive Optics (AO) system, developed by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC). The Institut d'Optique Graduate School-Laboratoire Charles Fabry (IOGS-LCF), through a collaboration with the IAC, integrated some high performance control solutions. In this proceeding, we present
