Nanshan One meter Wide-field Telescope
Publish Time:2018-04-03
After the Nanshan One meter Wide-field Telescope was installed in 2013 andthe detector upgrade and trial observations were completed in2014-2015, it was opened for scientific observation in 2016. Theprimary mirror of NOWT is parabolic, with an effective apertureof 1000 mm and a design effective field of view of 1.5◦×1.5◦.Equipped with Johnson, SDSS, and Strömgren filter systems commonly used for optical astronomical photometry, it can makeobservations of stellar types, parameters, metal abundances, etc. NOWT mainly focuses on optical time domain astronomy to carry out multicolor photometry, open cluster of stars observation, transient search and observation of small Solar System body. The data were generated in 2013 and released at the XAO Data Center on April 3, 2018.
