The Optical Detector Team is a multidisciplinary
(electronics, software, cryogenics, detector physics, astronomy,
etc.), multi-national (Australian, Danish, French, German, Italian,
Spanish, etc.) department in ESO's
Instrumentation Division.
We closely collaborate with our collegues at ESO's
La Silla and
Paranal
observatories in Chile, the
other departments of
the Instrumentation Division,
the Technical Division (software and electronics), and,
last but by no means least, external instrument consortia and
industry. In addition, we regularly host visitors and temporary
team members for various periods of time. In this cooperative network,
we assume the beginning-to-end responsibility assigned to us
for ESO's optical detector systems.
