Turkey's next big science project: DAG the 4 meter telescope
(SPIE-INT Soc Optical Engineering, 2014)
The DAG (Turkish for Eastern Anatolia Observatory) 4-m telescope project has been formally launched in 2012, being fully funded by the Government of Turkey. This new observatory is to be located on a 3170 m altitude ridge ...
Auxiliary free space optical communication project to ensure continuous transfer of data for DAG the 4m telescope
(SPIE, 2016)
The continuity of the amount of data that the 4m DAG (Eastern Anatolia Observatory in Turkish) telescope will produce and transfer to Ataturk University is critical not to jeopardize the science programs. Though the fiber ...
