Descripción
We have developed COSMOPACK, a set of tools that transform images of real galaxies to depict their appearance at a given redshift as observed with a given telescope and camera. The transformation includes K-corrections, change of observing band, repixelation to the scale of the observing system, convolution by the seeing, and noise from sky, detector, and dark current. We show two applications of COSMOPACK: 1) the visibility of a number of galaxy types, and 2) the recovery of effective radii and effective surface brightness as a function of redshift in the COSMOS survey.

    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

    HARMONI at ELT: project status and instrument overview
    HARMONI is the first light visible and near-IR integral field spectrograph for the ELT. It covers a large spectral range from 450 nm to 2450 nm with resolving powers from 3500 to 18000 and spatial sampling from 60 mas to 4 mas. It can operate in two Adaptive Optics modes - SCAO (including a High Contrast capability) and LTAO - or with NOAO. The
