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 ...
Integrated opto-dynamic modeling of the 4-m DAG telescope image quality performance
(SPIE-Int Soc Optical Engineering, 2016)
The Turkish DAG 4-m telescope is currently through the final design stage. It is to be located on a 3170 m mountain top in Eastern Anatolia. The telescope will be a state-of-The art device, alt-Az mount with active primary ...
Eastern Anatolia Observatory (DAG): Recent developments 2017
(SPIE-INT Soc Optical Engineering, 2018-07-06)
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 ...
Project management of DAG: Eastern Anatolia Observatory
(SPIE, 2016)
The four meter DAG (Eastern Anatolia Observatory in Turkish) telescope is not only the largest telescope in Turkey but also the most promising telescope in the northern hemisphere with a large potential to offer scientific ...
DAG: A new observatory and a prospective observing site for other potential telescopes
(SPIE, 2016)
DAG (Eastern Anatolia Observatory is read as "Dogu Anadolu Gözlemevi" in Turkish) is the newest and largest observatory of Turkey, constructed at an altitude of 3150 m in Konakll/Erzurum provenience, with an optical and ...
The flexible adaptive optics concept
(Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias, 2017)
The availability of small deformable mirrors with large number of actuators and stroke, on one hand, and versatile wavefront sensors (pyramid WFS), on the other, allows the development of AO systems whose equivalent pitch ...
A flexible adaptive optics concept for general purpose high angular resolution science on the DAG 4m telescope
(SPIE-Int Soc Optical Engineering, 2018)
Thanks to the availability of high actuator density deformable mirrors (ALPAO 468 DM), the high versatility of the pyramid wavefront sensor and above all, the venue of essentially no noise EMCCD detectors, it becomes ...
Eastern Anatolia Observatory (DAG): The status in 2020
(SPIE, 2020)
East Anatolian Observatory's DAG telescope, with its 4m diameter primary mirror and VIS/IR observation capability, will be located on the Konakll-Karaya summit at an altitude of 3170 m, near the city of Erzurum, Turkey. ...
Optical design of the adaptive optics system for DAG, the new 4 m Turkish telescope
(SPIE, 2020)
We present the design of the Adaptive Optics System for the new Turkish 4-m telescope (DAG). The AO will use a pyramid WFS, with a double prism and a no noise EM-CCD camera to allow for oversampling of the pupil images and ...
