X-shooter, the new wide band intermediate resolution spectrograph at the ESO Very Large Telescope

TL;DR: X-shooter as mentioned in this paper is the first 2nd generation instrument of the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT), which was installed at the Cassegrain focus of UT2 in 2009.
Journal ArticleDOI

Searching for links between magnetic fields and stellar evolution - II. The evolution of magnetic fields as revealed by observations of Ap stars in open clusters and associations

TL;DR: In this article, a large survey of magnetic fields in cluster Ap stars with the goal of obtaining a sample of these stars with well-determined ages was carried out, where the stars in this subsample were selected from the available observational sample the stars that are probably (1) cluster or association members and (2) magnetic Ap stars.
Journal ArticleDOI

Searching for links between magnetic fields and stellar evolution - I. A survey of magnetic fields in open cluster A- and B-type stars with FORS1

TL;DR: In this paper, a survey of magnetic fields in early-type stars belonging to open clusters and associations of various ages was carried out using FORS1 in spectropolarimetric mode at the ESO VLT.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

The X-shooter pipeline

TL;DR: The steps of data reduction necessary to fully reduce science observations in the different modes are described with examples on typical data calibrations and observations sequences.
