The scientific use of the 1.2-m Galileo telescope of the Asiago Astrophysical Observatory after its recent refurbishment
Abstract
During the last 10 years the Galileo 1.2-m telescope has been completely refurbished in its optical, mechanical and electronic parts. This successful result opened suddenly the way to new scientific programs involving observations of Galactic and extragalactic sources. It gave the chance to participate efficiently in international campaigns of spectroscopic monitoring of variable sources like AGNs, supernovae, novae, dwarf novae, etc.
