论文摘要
大型光学/红外望远镜(LOT)是一个基于地面的12m直径光学/红外望远镜,建议在未来十年内在中国西部建造。基于卫星遥感数据以及地理,后勤和政治考虑,选择了三个候选地点进行基于地面的天文绩效监测。这些站点包括:西藏的阿里,四川的daocheng和新疆的Muztagh Ata。到目前为止,所有三个站点都持续收集了两年的数据。在本文中,我们将介绍此网站测试活动,并介绍其在2017年3月至2019年3月期间获得的监控结果。
The Large Optical/infrared Telescope (LOT) is a ground-based 12m diameter optical/infrared telescope which is proposed to be built in the western part of China in the next decade. Based on satellite remote sensing data, along with geographical, logistical and political considerations, three candidate sites were chosen for ground-based astronomical performance monitoring. These sites include: Ali in Tibet, Daocheng in Sichuan, and Muztagh Ata in Xinjiang. Up until now, all three sites have continuously collected data for two years. In this paper, we will introduce this site testing campaign, and present its monitoring results obtained during the period between March 2017 and March 2019.
