For years, Calar Alto received most of its technology from the MPIA, initially with photoplanes, even in the IR range, then came Retincon, CCDs, IR detectors, and increasingly CMOS. Today, many developments are carried out on site by Calar Alto staff, from new telescope control systems to improvements in efficiency, for example in Carmenes' radial velocity measurements. In this talk, Jens Helmling will take us on a journey of technological evolution along the last 50 years of the observatory.[[BR]][[BR]]Presentation: German[[BR]]Slides: English[[BR]]Questions: !English/German || |
