Lijiang 2.4-meter Telescope and its instruments

Abstract: The Lijiang 2.4-meter Telescope (LJT), the largest common-purpose optical telescope in China, has been available to the worldwide astronomical community since 2008. It is located at the Gaomeigu site, Lijiang Observatory (LJO), in the southwest of China. The site has very good observational conditions. During its 10-year operation, several instruments have been equipped on the LJT. Astronomers can perform both photometric and spectral observations. The main scientific goals of LJT include recording photometric… Show more

“…The spectroscopic observation of Mrk 817 and NGC 7469 were taken using Yunnan Faint Object Spectrograph and Camera (YFOSC) mounted on the Lijiang 2.4-meter telescope (LJT), which locates in Lijiang and is administered by Yunnan Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The detailed information of the observation site including the telescope, instruments, observing conditions and some calibration methods are described in Fan et al (2015), Wang et al (2019), Xin et al (2020) and Lu et al (2021).…”

“…In order to observe the potential optical emission, on 3 January 2022 (∼6.8 days after trigger), we observed the field of GRB 211227A with the Lijiang 2.4m telescope, which is located at Lijiang Observatory of Yunnan Observatoris, Chinese Academy of Science (Wang et al 2019;Xin et al 2020). The photometric observations were performed using Johnson R-band filter with a total exposure of 1200 s at airmass of 1.2 and a seeing of ∼1.7 under good weather conditions.…”

“…After the discovery, extensive optical and NIR follow-up observations were conducted for SN 2012ij on several facilities. A total of 14 spectra were obtained for SN 2012ij, including 4 optical spectra from the Xinglong 2.16-m Telescope (XLT; Fan et al 2016), 3 optical spectra from Lijiang 2.4-m Telescope(LJT; Fan et al 2015;Wang et al 2019), 4 optical spectra from LCO du Pont and Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT), and 3 NIR spectra from Folded-port Infrared Echellette (FIRE) mounted on the Magellan Baade Telescope (CSP-II). A journal of spectroscopic observations is listed in Table 2.…”
