Status of the 'Pi of the Sky' telescopes in Spain and Chile

摘要

"Pi of the Sky" is a system of wide field of view robotic telescopes, which search for short timescale astrophysical phenomena, especially for prompt optical GRB emission. The system was designed for autonomous operation, monitoring a large fraction of the sky with 12~m-13~m range and time resolution of the order of 1 - 10 seconds. For now there are two working "Pi of the Sky" observatories: in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) and near Mazagon in Southern Spain. In this paper we report on the status of the project, as well as recent observation of asteroid 2004B L_(86), which passed the Earth in late January 2015, DG CVn outburst in 2014, satellites observations and our future plans.
