- Description:
- INAF-OATs SVAS Educational Images SIAP service. Le Stelle Vanno A Scuola (SVAS) proposes a modern tool to support teaching of astronomy, through the study and experimentation of its observation methods. SVAS offers to schools and teachers a remote laboratory with which carry out real observation sessions, managed in real time by the students under the supervision of the teacher, in the classroom, and of an astronomer, at the OATs, thanks to the telematic link between the school and the observatory. Students and teachers experience real astronomical observations, through the interactive participation to the different steps of planning, observing and acquiring the data. The project is addressed to 13-18 yr students. Every observation is previously planned together with the teachers, according to age and curriculum of the students, with the aim to maximize the results. The observing activity, lasting about 90 minutes and led by an astronomer of the OATs, can be done during the morning (observation of the Sun) or in the evening (observation of stars, nebulae, clusters and galaxies). SVAS involves the Astronomical Observatory of Trieste (OATs), the school (of every level) and the University of Trieste. SVAS is supported by the Consorzio per l’Incremento degli Studi e delle Ricerche dei Dipartimenti di Fisica e Astronomia dell’Università di Trieste and by the Ministero dell'Istruzione, dell'Università e della Ricerca.

- Title:
- Tirgo IR Archive

- IA2
- Description:
- The Archive is formed with all files measured with ARcetri Near Infrared CAmera ( ARNICA). Each files contains (in FITS format) or a single exposure or the mean of single exposures taken at the same telescope position. The filer used can be either a Johnson broad band infrared filter (J, H, K), or a narrow band filter (see ARNICA) page for details). Most measures was acquired at the TIRGO telescope, while a smaller sample cames from the few telescopes Arnica was ported to (WHT, NOT, VATT and TNG). All frame are in FITS format and are 256x256 pixels in size. The archive contains more than 250.000 frames. Most files belongs to a compound measure (we call them "a mosaic").

- Description:
- DOLORES (Device Optimized for the LOw RESolution) is a focal reducer instrument installed at the Nasmyth B focus of the TNG. The detector is a 2048 x 2048 E2V 4240 Thinned back-illuminated, deep-depleted, Astro-BB coated CCD with a pixel size of 13.5 µ. The scale is 0.252 arcsec/px which yields a field of view of about 8.6 x 8.6 arcmin. The instrument allows imaging through broad and narrow band filters as well as spectroscopic observations with resolving powers between RS=~500 and RS=~6000. A multi-slit mode, based on custom masks manufactured by a dedicate cutting machine, is also available. Please note that MOS programs are bound to strict constraints on the number of masks and on the time necessary to design and manufacture them. In particular, each program can request up to a maximum of 5 masks per night and 10 masks per observing run.

- Description:
- NICS (Near Infrared Camera Spectrometer) is the TNG infrared (0.9-2.5 µm) multimode instrument which is based on a HgCdTe Hawaii 1024x1024 array. Its observing capabilities include imaging (4.2' x 4.2' f.o.v.), high-throughput low resolution spectroscopy (RS=50-500), medium resolution spectoscopy (max-R=2500), imaging polarimetry, spectropolarimetry and, when coupled to the adaptive optics module, nearly diffraction limited imaging.

- IA2
- Description:
- OIG is a CCD camera for direct imaging at optical wavelengths (between 0.32 nd 1.1 microns) for the TNG. It is mounted on the Nasmyth A Adapter interface. OIG is designed to host a variety of CCD chips or mosaics for a field of view up to 10 arcmin. At the moment it is equipped with a mosaic of two thinned and back-illuminated EEV 42-80 CCDs with 2048 x 4096 pixels each (pixel size of 13.5 microns). The resulting pixel scale is 0.072 arcsec/pix for a total field of view of about 4.9 x 4.9 arcmin.

- Description:
- WINGS (WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey) is an all-sky (|b|>20) survey of a complete, X-ray selected sample of galaxy clusters in the redshift range 0.04-0.07. The core of the WINGS project is the optical (B,V) imaging survey. It provides photometric data for huge samples of galaxies (~550,000) and stars (~190,000) in the inner field (34'x34') of 77 nearby galaxy clusters.
