López, O. Zamora, Á. Oscoz, J. Marco Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2025 Context. Binary stars are invaluable tools that can be used to precisely measure the fundamental properties of stars, to test stellar models, and further our understanding of stellar evolution. Stellar binarity may also play an important role in the formation and evolution of exoplanetary systems. Aims. We provide a technique for resolving intermediate-separation binaries stars with medium-sized telescopes (i.e. diameter less than or equal to 2.5 metres) at wavelengths around 825 nm in the super-resolution range (i.e. below the limit defined by the Rayleigh criterion). Methods. We combined two well-known algorithms that have been applied to reduce the halo in lucky imaging observations: COvariancE of Lucky Images and the Lucky Imaging Speckle Suppression Algorithm. We reviewed the fundamentals of both algorithms and describe a new technique called Lucky Imaging Super resolution Technique (LIST), which is optimized for peak highlighting within the first ring of the Airy pattern. To validate the technique, we carried out several observing campaigns of well-known binary stars with the FastCam instrument (FC) on the 1.52 m Carlos Sánchez Telescope (TCS) and 2.56 m Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT), both located at the Observatorios de Canarias (OCAN). Results. The projected angular separation between objects was resolved by applying LIST to FC data taken with TCS and NOT, with a result below 0.15″. It can go down to approximately 0.05″, given the limitations of the detector plate scale. This is, to our knowledge, the first time that binary companions with such small angular separations have been detected using only lucky imaging at optical wavelengths. The average accuracy achieved for the angular separation measurement is 16 ± 2 mas with NOT and is 20 ± 1 mas with TCS. The average accuracy obtained for the position angle measurement is 9.5° ± 0.3° for NOT and 11° ± 2° for TCS. We also made an attempt to measure the relative brightnesses of the binary components, obtaining results that are compatible with literature measurements. Using this comparison, the ∆m uncertainty obtained was 0.1 mag for NOT and 0.48 mag for TCS, although it should be noted that the measurements have been taken using slightly different filters. Conclusions. Lucky imaging, in combination with speckle suppression and a covariance analysis, can allow the resolution of multiple point sources below the diffraction limit of 2-m class telescopes. However, it should be noted that measurements in the super-resolution regime are less sensitive than those above the first Airy ring.

Apparent correlation between extrinsic and intrinsic flux variations in the first gravitationally lensed quasar L J Goicoechea, V N Shalyapin, A Oscoz Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2024 To better understand which sources contribute to optical passband fluxes of Q0957+561, we present and analyse light curves of the doubly imaged gravitationally lensed quasar from its discovery to 2023. After an early microlensing event, the difference light curves (describing delay-corrected flux ratios between the two quasar images) only show prominent microlensing gradients over the last 17 yr. In addition to these long time-scale gradients in the gr bands, we detect short time-scale, extrinsically induced differential variations that are highly correlated with the short time-scale intrinsic variability of the quasar in those bands. Both the accretion disc and the broad emission-line region (BELR) contribute to optical passband fluxes, and we also show that realistic contributions of the BELR account for the observed correlations in the gr bands. We would like to highlight that the BELR sources of optical passband fluxes of Q0957+561 should be taken into account when measuring accretion-disc source sizes from microlensing simulations.
Adaptive Optics system-box for the QKD transportable ground station at IAC 7th Adaptive Optics for Extremely Large Telescopes Conference Ao4elt7 2023, 2023
Transportable Optical Ground Station for QKD using Adaptive Optics with a Plenoptic Wavefront Sensor Jorge Socas, Joan Torras, Luis Fernando Rodriguez, Iciar Montilla, Alex Oscoz, Angel Alonso, Jaime Ruiz, Elena Reyes, Guillermo Fuentes, Carlos Marrero, Noelia Martinez Proceedings of SPIE the International Society for Optical Engineering, 2023 The Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands, IAC, and specifically its technology transfer division IACTEC, has a long history of participation in free-space optical communications projects (FSOC). These activities are nowadays being pushed forward to achieve practical applications of quantum key distribution, leveraging its facilities and experience in the FSOC field and its “know-how” in Adaptive Optics. A Free-Space Communications Laboratory has been installed at IACTEC clean rooms, intended to be used as a permanent facility where specific equipment for optical communications, quantum and classical, is available to our research and development group and its collaborators. Single photon detectors and sources, including both avalanche and superconducting nanowires(SNSPD), 16 GHz oscilloscope, FPGA-based time to digital converter, and many optical and electronic general-purpose building blocks are examples of the items existing at the facility, which should become a complement of the existing OGS telescope located at the Observatorio del Teide. The main objective of the group is to make extensive use of the well-known adaptive optics techniques for the compensation of the aberrations introduced in the communications channel by the atmospheric turbulence. Specifically, a Transportable Optical Ground Station (TOGS) with adaptive optics will be presented, designed with the aim to provide efficient transmission of quantum keys between islands or from a LEO satellite. The efficiency of coupling the received signal to a Single Mode Fibre is vital when using a SNSPD because they are commonly used as input to the cryostat, in order to minimize dark counts. When the communication optical link is expected to suffer atmospheric turbulence during its free-space path, being able to compensate them using adaptive optics could improve the coupling efficiency by a factor of 25 for a 1-meter telescope, as has been obtained in simulations carried out by our group. Our group has also found in simulations that an adaptive optics system based on the plenoptic camera will behave especially well in the situation of high turbulence, as it can be expected for sea-level communications. An optical design based in the use of the plenoptic camera as wavefront sensor for the TOGS will be presented.
The evolution of the ALIOLI instrument Esther Soria Hernández, Roberto López López, Alejandro Oscoz Abad, David Lopez Fernandez-Nespral Proceedings of SPIE the International Society for Optical Engineering, 2022 The Adaptive and Lucky Imagine Optics Lightweight Instrument (ALIOLI) is a portable Adaptive Optics (AO) system capable of being installed on different medium-sized telescopes due to a modular approach to its components. The Wavefront Sensor (WFS) module is designed to be used with three different WFSs: Shack-Hartmann (SH), Two Pupil Plane Position (TP3), and Pyramidal unmodulated, allowing a joint configuration for comparative studies of WFS response when different observing situations. In this article we show the assembly of the TP3 module and we summarize the first open-loop measurements on the bench. These results have been compared with those obtained in the simulation phase. Finally, we present the next proposed tests and the steps to follow for possible updates.
Design considerations for a Transportable Optical Ground Station with Adaptive Optics Luis Fernando Rodriguez Ramos, Joan Torras Estruch, Noelia Martinez Rey, Jorge Socas Negrin, Iciar Montilla, Marcos Reyes Garcia-Talavera, Alex Oscoz, Angel Alonso Sanchez, Pablo Gonzalez de Chaves Fernandez 2022 IEEE International Conference on Space Optical Systems and Applications Icsos 2022, 2022 IACTEC, as the technology transfer division of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), is initiating a program towards the practical applications of optical communications and specifically the quantum key distribution, taking advantage of its facilities and experience in free-space optical communications and its know-how in Adaptive Optics. The main objective of the optical communication group is related to the use of the atmospheric turbulence compensation to improve the performance of a Transportable Optical Ground Station (TOGS). This compensation is especially challenging when daytime operations are considered, and also if the TOGS is expected to work in virtually any location, including ordinary city buildings, where atmospheric turbulence is much worse than that found in astrophysical observatories. The role of Adaptive Optics could be especially relevant when using superconducting nanowires detectors, which can achieve very low dark counts when fed from a single mode fiber. In this situation, the ability to couple the light received at the telescope to the fiber is vital, and if the wavefront aberration caused by the atmospheric turbulence is corrected before the coupling to the fiber, the total loss of the quantum channel will be lowered and the key rate improved. This improvement will be estimated through simulations of the atmospheric turbulence characteristics of the different scenarios.
ALIOLI: Presentation and first steps Esther Soria Hernández, Roberto López López, Alejandro Oscoz Abad, Carlos Colodro Conde Proceedings of SPIE the International Society for Optical Engineering, 2020 Adaptive optics (AO) systems correct atmospheric turbulence in real time and they are normally used in large and medium telescopes but not in modest telescopes due to their size and cost. Here we propose a portable AO instrument capable of being installed in different medium and small-sized telescopes. The novelty of this new instrument is that it is based on the modularization of its components: simulator/calibrator, Wavefront Corrector (WFC) with a deformable mirror (DM) and Wavefront sensor (WFS) modules. This modular concept allows great flexibility in the design, being possible to easily adapt the instrument to the working telescope or instrument by adjusting each module independently. This concept also makes possible the comparison between different types of WFS such as Shack-Hartmann (S-H), Two Pupil Plane Position (TP3) or Pyramidal. Here we present the optical design and expected performance of the three WFS for 1.52m, Carlos Sanchez Telescope (TCS), and the preliminary results of the S-H sensor in laboratory and the first on-sky test.
MuSCAT2: Four-color simultaneous camera for the 1.52-m Telescopio Carlos Sánchez Norio Narita, Akihiko Fukui, Nobuhiko Kusakabe, Noriharu Watanabe, Enric Palle, Hannu Parviainen, Pilar Montañés-Rodríguez, Felipe Murgas, Matteo Monelli, Marta Aguiar, Jorge Andres Perez Prieto Journal of Astronomical Telescopes Instruments and Systems, 2019 We report the development of a four-color simultaneous camera for the 1.52-m Telescopio Carlos Sánchez in the Teide Observatory, Canaries, Spain. The instrument, named MuSCAT2, has a capability of four-color simultaneous imaging in g (400 to 550 nm), r (550 to 700 nm), i (700 to 820 nm), and zs (820 to 920 nm) bands. MuSCAT2 equips four 1024 × 1024 pixel CCDs, having a field of view of 7.4 × 7.4 arc min2 with a pixel scale of 0.44 arc sec per pixel. The principal purpose of MuSCAT2 is to perform high-precision multicolor exoplanet transit photometry. We demonstrate photometric precisions of 0.057%, 0.050%, 0.060%, and 0.076% as root-mean-square residuals of 60 s binning in g, r, i, and zs bands, respectively, for a G0 V star WASP-12 (V = 11.57 ± 0.16). MuSCAT2 has started science operations since January 2018, with over 250 telescope nights per year. MuSCAT2 is expected to become a reference tool for exoplanet transit observations and substantially contributes to the follow-up of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and Planetary Transits and Oscillations of stars space missions.
ALIOLI: Adaptive and Lucky Imaging Optics Lightweight Instrument Sergio Velasco Muñoz, Roberto López López, Alejandro Oscoz, Carlos Colodro-Conde Proceedings of SPIE the International Society for Optical Engineering, 2018 As a consequence of the evolution in the design and of the modularity of its components, AOLI for the William Herschel Telescope (WHT 4.2m) is much smaller and more efficient than its previous designs. This success has leaded us to plan to condense it even more to get a portable and easy to integrate system, ALIOLI (Adaptive and Lucky Imaging Optics Lightweight Instrument). It consists of a DM+WFS module with a lucky imaging science camera attached. ALIOLI is an AO instrument for the 1-2m class telescopes which will also be used as on-sky testbench for AO developments. Here we describe the setup to be installed at the 1.5m Telescopio Carlos Snchez (TCS) at the Spanish Observatorio del Teide (Tenerife, Canary Islands).
