Descripción
We present new deep color-magnitude diagrams at different galactocentric distances of the Local Group dwarf spheroidal galaxy Fornax, and preliminary results on metallicities of individual stars, obtained from Ca II triplet spectroscopy. These data will be used to reliably derive the star formation and chemical enrichment histories of this galaxy. Based on observations collected at the European Southern Observatory, Chile.

    HARMONI at ELT: HIPOTEC electronics and control system
    HARMONI is the first light visible and near-IR integral field spectrograph for the ELT. It covers a large spectral range from 470nm to 2450nm with resolving powers from 3300 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

    GTCAO low-frequency tip-tilt offload to M2
    GTCAO is the instrument that implements Adaptive Optics on GTC. For atmospheric turbulence correction, GTCAO uses a deformable mirror. Unlike other AO systems, GTCAO does not include a dedicated mirror for low-frequency tip-tilt (TT) correction. In the absence of dedicated correction, the TT components of atmospheric turbulence are corrected by the
