    High redshift galaxies in the ALHAMBRA survey. II. Strengthening the evidence of bright-end excess in UV luminosity functions at 2.5 ≤ z≤ 4.5 by PDF analysis
    Context. Knowing the exact shape of the ultraviolet (UV) luminosity function (LF) of high-redshift galaxies is important to understand the star formation history of the early Universe. However, the uncertainties, especially at the faint and bright ends of the LFs, remain significant. Aims: In this paper, we study the UV LF of redshift z = 2.5 - 4.5

    HARMONI pre-optics design at PDR
    HARMONI is a visible and near-infrared (0.5 to 2.45 μm) integral field spectrograph, providing the E-ELT's core spectroscopic capability, over a range of resolving powers from R (λ/Δλ) 3500 to 18000. The instrument provides simultaneous spectra of ˜32000 spaxels arranged in a sqrt(2):1 aspect ratio contiguous field. The pre-optics take light

    GTCAO real time AO closed loop software implementation and initial computer performance analysis
    The Gran Telescopio Canarias Adaptive Optics (GTCAO) is a single-conjugated post-focal system with a Shack Hartmann wavefront sensor working at visible wavelength and one Deformable Mirror (DM) conjugated to the pupil. GTCAO does not include a fast tip-tilt mirror in its optical bench so it relies on the telescope secondary mirror (M2) to correct

    GTC adaptive optics first performance tests in laboratory
    The GTC AO system designed and developed during the last years is based on a single deformable mirror with 21 x 21 actuators, conjugated to the telescope pupil, and a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor with 20 x 20 subapertures, using an OCAM2 camera. The GTCAO system will provide a corrected beam with a Strehl Ratio (SR) of 0.65 in K-band with bright

    Gravitational lensing detection of an extremely dense environment around a galaxy cluster
    Galaxy clusters form at the highest-density nodes of the cosmic web1,2. The clustering of dark matter halos hosting these galaxy clusters is enhanced relative to the general mass distribution, with the matter density beyond the virial region being strongly correlated to the halo mass (halo bias)3. Halo properties other than mass can further enhance

    FRIDA: the software architecture to execute and coordinate observing sequences
    The instrument FRIDA (inFRared Imager and Dissector for Adaptive optics) is an integral field spectrograph (near infrared) with imaging capability for being used at the Nasmyth B platform of the Gran Telescopio de Canarias (GTC), behind the Adaptive Optics (AO) system. FRIDA is the first GTC instrument to use the telescope AO system. FRIDA is a
