Keskin, O. & Yeşilyaprak, C., (2018). Eastern Anatolia Observatory (DAG): Recent Developments 2017. Paper presented at the Ground-Based And Airborne Telescopes VII, 10700, 1-7. doi:10.1117/12.2313136Özet
East Anatolia Observatory (DAG) is the new observatory of Turkey with the optical (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) largest telescope (4 m mirror) and its robust observing site infrastructure. This national project consists of three phases with DAG (telescope, enclosure, building, infrastructure), FPI (Focal Plane Instruments and Adaptive Optics) and MCP (Mirror Coating Plant) and is supported by the Ministry of Development of Turkey. Almost all infrastructure (roads, geological and atmospheric surveys, electricity, fiber optics, water, generator, etc.) of DAG site (Erzurum/Turkey, 3170 m altitude) have been completed. The recent developments (telescope, enclosure, mirror, focal plane instruments, building, atmospheric studies, etc.) of DAG and its site in 2017 and 2018 were presented for the future possible collaborations for various astronomical instruments and telescopes which can be set up in DAG site.

Adaptive backstepping approach for 2-DOF telescopes despite unknown wind disturbance
Ünal, Ali Cem; Yılmaz, Cemal Tuğrul; Kararsız, Gökhan; Yeşilyaprak, Cahit; Keskin, Onur (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-07)Small ground telescopes on the marked are widely used in many space observatories and scientific researches. There are three main problems in such telescopes; positioning of the focal point and the need of tuning for both ... -
The design of an adaptive optics telescope: the case of DAG
Keskin, Onur; Jolissaint, Laurent; Zago, Lorenzo; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; Yeşilyaprak, Cahit; Mudry, Emeric; Lousberg, Grégory P. (SPIE, 2016-07-27)In this paper, we describe in detail the optical design of DAG, a new 4 m telescope for Turkey. DAG is an "adaptive optics friendly" telescope, in a sense that each design decision is taken considering the potential impact ... -
