Most of these images were obtained by Mike Bessell, Michelle Buxton, Hwankyung Sung, Ralph Sutherland and Bob Watson at SSO using a 2Kx2K Site CCD behind a Nikon or Hasselblad lens or directly on the 1m telescope. A few images are from the Hubble Space Telescope. Some of the M42 images were obtained with the KPNO 1m and ESO NTT telescope. One image is a mosaic of IRAS images. ...

... Astrophysics Group . ... COAST Technical Details . ... The beam from each telescope passes through an aluminium tube, which serves to isolate it from the atmosphere, into the beam combining building. ... Inside the beam combining building the outer annulus of each light beam is separated and used in the acquisition and autoguider system. ... A simple algorithm is then used to detect the offset from the centre of the field, and this is corrected using piezo-driven mirrors at the back of the...
