Description
This contribution describes the software and electronic improvements implemented in the GREGOR Infrared Spectrograph (GRIS) installed on the Gregor telescope. It is located at the Teide Observatory, in Tenerife, Islas Canarias, Spain. As a demonstrator for an instrument for the European Solar Telescope (EST), this project aims to perform simultaneous spectropolarimetric observations in several spectral lines using several synchronized detectors that may operate at different synchronized frame rates. Throughout the article, the problems encountered in achieving the synchronization of two or more sensors and the solutions proposed to solve them are explained.

    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

    First light of the upgraded Gregor Infrared Spectrograph
    For more than ten years, the Gregor Infrared Spectrograph (GRIS) has been the infrared spectropolarimeter on the Gregor telescope since its inauguration in 2012. The instrument mainly performs polarimetric observations of the wavelength regions at 1083 and 1565nm, which have high scientific potential. There, observers can find spectral lines that

    Performance of the image persistence model for Euclid infrared detectors
    Large-format infrared detectors are at the heart of major ground and space-based astronomical instruments, and the HgCdTe HxRG is the most widely used. The Near Infrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP) of the ESA's Euclid mission launched in July 2023 hosts 16 H2RG detectors in the focal plane. Their performance relies heavily on the effect of
