Robotic telescope of Zvenigorod observatory Naroenkov S., Nalivkin M.

Abstract

      The Institute of Astronomy is working on the develompent of robotic monitoring systems to solve a wide range of astrophysical problems. As a result of the work, a robotic optical system with the 20-cm wide-angle telescope was created. The special software has been developed. This software allows us making observations in the automatic mode without operator's participation. The robotic telescope IRT-20 is located in the Zvenigorod Observatory of INASAN. Photometric observations of variable stars and searching of optical transients are carried out with the telescope in a constant mode.
