Multi-line spectropolarimetric observations allow the simultaneous inference of magnetic field in different layers solar atmosphere and provide insight into how these are magnetically coupled. The new upgrade Gregor Infrared Spectrograph (GRIS) instrument offers such a possibility by allowing for observation Ca ii line at 8542 Å, Si i 10827 He triplet 10830 Å , addition to some additional weaker spectral lines that can probe greater depth photosphere. Because sensitive plasma properties...
This paper describes the design and development of modeling simulation environment for robotic manipulators named ROBOMOSP (Robotics Modeling Simulation Platform), which addresses important limitations existing software this purpose, under a highly parametric interface ideal academics research. The platform adds novel characteristics functions that are not found in other commercial noncommercial robot packages available today, including solution to multibody dynamics problem using automatic...
The European Solar Telescope (EST) will be Europe's most ambitious ground-based infrastructure in solar physics. It have a primary mirror with diameter of 4.2m, which make it the largest Europe, and identical aperture as telescope available worldwide, namely Daniel K. Inouye (DKIST) installed at Haleakala summit, Hawai'i. EST two main characteristics devoted to maximising scientific return. First, telescope's optical path polarisation-free using pairs mirrors that compensate for instrumental...
The Gregor Infrared Spectrograph (GRIS) is installed at the telescope Observatorio del Teide, Spain. instrument started observations in 2012 and underwent several upgrades following years. Currently, it experiencing most significant upgrade so far, which includes, among other things, adding two optical channels to perform simultaneous multi-wavelength observations. One of elements we need modify optimise performance on all new spectral Polarisation Module Unit (PMU). In this contribution,...
The European Solar Telescope (EST) aims to become the most ambitious ground-based solar telescope in Europe. Its roots lie knowledge and expertise gained from building running previous infrastructures like, among others, Vacuum Tower Telescope, Swedish or GREGOR telescope. They are installed Canary Islands observatories, selected EST site. Furthermore, has a novel optical design, including an adaptive secondary mirror (ASM) that allows reducing number of surfaces 6 mirrors (plus two lenses)...
This contribution describes the software and electronic improvements implemented in GREGOR Infrared Spectrograph (GRIS) installed on Gregor telescope. It is located at Teide Observatory, Tenerife, Islas Canarias, Spain. As a demonstrator for an instrument European Solar Telescope (EST), this project aims to perform simultaneous spectropolarimetric observations several spectral lines using synchronized detectors that may operate different frame rates. Throughout article, problems encountered...
