The continuity of the amount of data that the 4m DAG (Eastern Anatolia Observatory in Turkish) telescope will produce and transfer to Ataturk University is critical not to jeopardize the science programs. Though t he fiber optics and radio link infrastructures are in place, these systems are still volatile against earthquakes, and possible excavation damages. Thus the 4m DAG telescope will be equipped with a free space optical communication system to ensure the continuity of the data transfer as a backup system. In order to cope with the disturbances introduced by the atmospheric turbulence, the transceiver FSO system will be equipped with a wavefront corrector. In this paper, the Cassegrain optical design, and working principle of this system as well as expected performance analyses will be presented.

Satellite attitude control by integrator back-stepping with internal stabilization Doruk, Resat Oezguer; Kocaoglan, Erol (2008-01-01) Purpose - This paper aims to focus on the implementation of the integral back-stepping control on the model of BILSAT - 1 satellite of the Turkish Scientific and Technological Research Council (TUBITAK).
Security Dimesion of Turkey's relations with Russia: 2000-2010 Güreş, Gülşah; Tanrısever, Oktay Fırat; Department of Eurasian Studies (2011) This thesis aims to examine the security dimension of Turkey’s relations with Russia during the period between 2000 and 2010. In this context, political, military and energy aspects of the security relations between Turkey and Russia are examined in detail. Contrary to the views that conceive the recent rapprochement in Turkish-Russian relations as ‘strategic partnership’ or a form of cooperation that has the potential of reaching the level of strategic partnership, the thesis argues that these countries ha...
Enhancing the Comparative Research Capacity of the CES(CESCER) Eralp , Atila(2008-4-30) The project aims at enhancing the research capacity of the Center for European Studies (CES) atthe Middle East Technical University (METU) in Ankara, Turkey to the standards for a center ofexcellence in European studies. Having already established itself as one of the leading centers forEuropean studies in Turkey, the CES aims to promote the development of an interdisciplinaryenvironment conducive for studying and researching the processes of European integration in acomparative manner. The CES, located at ...
Status of the Focal Plane Instrumentation (FPI) Project of the 4 m DAG Telescope KESKİN, ONUR; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; YEŞİLYAPRAK, Cahit; Guver, Tolga; Alis, Sinan; Yelkenci, F. Korhan; Gucsav, B. Bulent; ÖZBEY ARABACI, Mehtap; Erol, Ayse (2016-06-30) DAG (Eastern Anatolia Observatory in Turkish) will be the newest and largest (4m) observatory of Turkey in both optical (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) Owith its robust observing site infrastructure. The telescope is designedOto house 2 Nasmyth platformes which will be dedicated to NIR and VIS observations. A collaboration has recently been established among four Turkish universities including FMV Isik University (for adaptive optics systems), Middle East Technical University (fort measurement, test and calib...
Project Management of DAG: Eastern Anatolia Observatory KESKİN, ONUR; YEŞİLYAPRAK, Cahit; Yerli, Sinan Kaan; Zago, Lorenzo; Guver, Tolga; Alis, Sinan (2016-06-28) The four meter DAG (Eastern Anatolia Observatory in Turkish) telescope is not only the largest telescope in Turkey but also the most promising telescope in the northern hemisphere with a large potential to offer scientific observations with its cutting edge technology. DAG is designed to be an AO telescope which will allow both infrared and visible observations with its two Nasmyth platforms dedicated to next generation focal plane instruments. In this paper, status updates from DAG telescope will be presen...
