Descripción
Following the gamma-ray, VHE (E>100 GeV) flare of the blazar 1ES 0806+525 (RA:08h09m49.2s DEC:+52d18m58.2s, z=0.138) detected by MAGIC on 2011 February 25 (ATel #3192), we performed a Swift target of opportunity observation starting on February 26. Swift monitored the source in photon counting mode with 5 daily observations for a total exposure of 10 ksec. The X-ray spectrum (0.2-10 keV) is well described by an absorbed power law model with a photon index of 2.4+/-0.1 and HI column density fixed to the Galactic value nH=4.1E20 cm-2 (Kalberla et al.

    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

    NIRPS near-infrared spectrograph: AITV phase at ESO3.6m/La Silla
    NIRPS is a fiber-fed AO nIR spectrograph working simultaneously with HARPS at the La Silla-ESO 3.6m telescope. The cryogenic spectrograph operating at 75K employs a cross-dispersed echelle grating (R4), covering a wavelength range of 0.98-1.80 microns in a single image using a Teledyne Hawaii-4RG infrared detector. In early 2022, the NIRPS

    Transport, handling, and integration of the adaptive optics system for GTC: from the laboratory to the telescope
    The Gran Telescopio de Canarias Adaptive Optics System (GTCAO) is currently in its commissioning phase at Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory (ORM). The GTCAO is a single-conjugated post-focal system equipped with a Shack- Hartmann Wavefront Sensor (WFS) and a Deformable Mirror (DM) conjugated to the pupil, achieving a Strehl Ratio of 65% in the K
