The New Robotic Telescope (NRT), the next-generation Liverpool Telescope (LT), will have a 4-metre, 18-segment mirror, and will be located on the summit of Roque de los Muchachos in La Palma, Canary Islands. Designing and developing the world’s largest robotic telescope, with a slew speed of approximately 10 degrees/second, poses challenges that have resulted in innovative design concepts,...

The bulk of the cosmic ray protons up to around 3 x 10^15 eV come from our Galaxy, with supernova shocks being the prime candidates for the acceleration sites. However, there is no evidence for the acceleration of particles in SNRs to the required energy from gamma-ray observations. It may be that the most energetic particles are accelerated in the early stages of Type II supernovae, resulting...
