Grzegorz Pietrzyński (CAMK, Warsaw)
My main motivation is to provide more detailed information about the new CAMK observing facility: the Rolf Chini Cerro Murphy observatory in Chile. The observatory is located in front of the construction place of the biggest telescope in the world the ELT and offers arguably the best observing conditions on our planet. I will present the current status of the instrumentation at the observatory together with our ambitious plans to expand its observing capabilities. Selected results obtained so far based on our telescopes will be presented. Several recently started scientific projects will also be discussed. I will also present our results in the software development, instrumental projects, and first attempts in commercialisation. Finally several aspects of using a big potential of this observatory in international, interdisciplinary projects and outreach projects will be presented.
Journal Club takes place on Mondays at 11:15 AM in the Seminar Room. The presentation is given in English and is chaired by Journal Club Coordinators. Anyone interested in giving a Journal Club talk is encouraged to contact the email: journalclub(@camk.edu.pl).
