AbstractWe developed VIEW-MOD (Versatile Illumination Engine With a Modular Optical Design): a compact, multi-modality microscope, which accommodates multiple illumination schemes including variable angle total internal reflection, point scanning and vertical/horizontal light sheet. This system allows combining and flexibly switching between different illuminations and imaging modes by employing three electrically tunable lenses and two fast-steering mirrors. This versatile optics design provides control of 6 degrees of freedom of the illumination source (3 translation, 2 tilt, and beam shape) plus the axial position of the imaging plane. We also developed standalone software with an easy-to-use GUI to calibrate and control the microscope. We demonstrate the applications of this system and software in biosensor imaging, optogenetics and fast 3D volume imaging. This system is ready to fit into complex imaging circumstances requiring precise control of illumination and detection paths, and has a broad scope of usability for a myriad of biological applications.

AbstractEST European Solar Telescope is a pan-european project, presently in its Conceptual Design Study financed by the European Commission in the framework of FP7, involving 29 partners, from 14 different countries. The EST project is aimed at the realization of a 4-m class telescope, characterized by an optical design and a set of instruments optimized for extremely high resolution imaging and spectropolarimetric observations from near UV to NIR. EST will be four times larger than any existing high resolution solar telescope and it is designated with the highest priority among the ground-based, medium term (2016-2020) new projects in the ASTRONET Roadmap (Panel C). The EST instruments will measure fundamental astrophysical processes at their intrinsic scales in the Sun's atmosphere to establish the mechanism of magnetic field generation and removal, and of energy transfer from the surface to the upper solar atmosphere and eventually to the whole heliosphere. The conceptual Design Study started on February 2008 and will finish during 2011. EST will be operational at the same time as major ESA and NASA space missions aimed at studying solar activity.
