Scientific paper

KANATA is a 1.5-m optical-near infrared telescope of Hiroshima University, which has been developed for observations of astronomical transients and variables, such as γ-ray bursts, blazars. X-ray transients, and cataclysmic variables. Here, we introduce three characteristics of KANATA with examples of observations, that is, i) high ability for prompt observations, ii) simultaneous optical and infrared observations, and iii) polarimetric observations. Collaborating with GLAST, we are planning to perform follow-up optical-infrared observations of γ-ray sources with KANATA.
