The granulation pattern that we observe on the surface of the Sun is due to hot plasma rising to the photosphere where it cools down and descends back into the interior at the edges of granules. This is the visible manifestation of convection taking place in the outer part of the solar convection zone. Because red giants have deeper convection

GRB 050904 at redshift 6.3: observations of the oldest cosmic explosion after the Big Bang
We present optical and near-infrared observations of the afterglow of the gamma-ray burst GRB 050904. We derive a photometric redshift z = 6.3, estimated from the presence of the Lyman break falling between the I and J filters. This is by far the most distant GRB known to date. Its isotropic-equivalent energy is 3.4 × 1053 erg in the rest-frame 110

Gregor@night: The future high-resolution stellar spectrograph for the GREGOR solar telescope
We describe the future night-time spectrograph for the GREGOR solar telescope and present its science core projects. The spectrograph provides a 3-pixel resolution of up to R=87 000 in 45 échelle orders covering the wavelength range 390-900 nm with three grating settings. An iodine cell can be used for high-precision radial velocity work in the 500

GRIS: The GREGOR Infrared Spectrograph
This paper describes the main characteristics of GRIS (GREGOR Infrared Spectrograph), the grating spectrograph installed in the recently inaugurated (May 2012) 1.5-meter GREGOR telescope located at the Observatorio del Teide in Tenerife. The spectrograph has a standard Czerny-Turner configuration with parabolic collimator and camera mirrors that

Ground-based tests of JEM-EUSO components at the Telescope Array site, "EUSO-TA"
We are conducting tests of optical and electronics components of JEMEUSO at the Telescope Array site in Utah with a ground-based "EUSO-TA" detector. The tests will include an engineering validation of the detector, cross-calibration of EUSO-TA with the TA fluorescence detector and observations of air shower events. Also, the proximity of the TA's
