High Precision Photometry of Quasars
Dr. Niall Smith Cork Institute of Technology
Irish astrophysicist Niall recently returned from Spain's Sierra de Los Filabres
mountain range at the Calar Alto Observatory He collected 38-hours of video data
of quasars using the Andor FI iXon, highlighting the sensitivity of this camera
in low light conditions.

Novel Microscopy Techniques for Tracking Microtubule Changes iXon Aids in the Search
for New Anticancer drugs
Associate research scientists Derek Toomre and Stathis Hadjidemetriou at the Yale
University Cellular Imaging Using New Microscopy Approaches (CINEMA) have been exploiting
the unique low light capabilities of Andor Technology’s iXon EMCCD detector to study
the dynamics of microtubule growth.
