    This report describes the Interface hardware and the automation control program implemented for the 75cm telescope dome at VBO, Kavalur.
  • Ravindra, B; Banyal, R. K (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 2010)
    This report provides a detailed design of a dual Fabry-Perot based narrow band imaging system intended to make observations of solar atmosphere at visible and near infrared wavelengths. The narrow band imager will serve ...
  • Thulasidharen, K. C; Prabhu, K; Rangarajan, K. E; Vasantharaju, N; Prabhu Ramkumar, B (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 2013-05-06)
    Automation of the spectropolarimetric observations at Kodaikanal tunnel telescope needs placement of the Sun's image on the spectrograph slit and scanning it across the region of interest. This requirement can be achieved ...
  • Chinnappan, V (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 2011)
    Computers and communication equipments need uninterrupted quality power for proper functioning. Electrical power is the most essential item for Industries and Institutions. The electricity consumer never worries about the ...
  • Arumugam, V (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 2024-05-29)
    A Telescope is an instrument that aids in the observation of stellar and celestial objects. Mirrors are an important subsystem in the Telescope. Over a period, due to weathering effects, reflection efficiency of the mirrors ...
  • Safonova, M; Nirmal, K; Sreejith, A.G.; Satpodar, Mayuresh; Suresh, Ambily; Prakash, A; Mathew, Joice; Murthy, J; Anand, D; Karpardhi, B.V.N.; Suneel Kumar, B; Kulkarni, P.M. (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 2016)
    Balloon experiments are an economically feasible method of conducting observations in astron- omy that are not possible from the ground. The astronomical payload may include a telescope, a detector, and a pointing/stabilization ...
  • Anand, M. N (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, 2024-05-29)
    We perceive time as a passage of events, a marker of change. In astronomy and astrophysics, we study events occurring over a short time (order of seconds) to long-term (a few years) variability. Accurate time stamping is ...
