The large aperture and sensitive optical and near infrared imager spectrographs will enable an ELT system to observe some supernovae at large distances, deep into cosmological history when supernovae first began to occur.

An ELT system with its large aperture and sensitive optical and near infrared imager spectrographs will make major contributions to the study of stars ripped apart by supermassive black holes.
So far, 24 Isolated neutron stars (INSs) of different types have been identified at optical wavelengths, from the classical radio pulsars to more peculiar objects, like the magnetars. Most identifications have been obtained in the last 20 years thank
s to the deployment of modern technology telescopes, above all the HST, but also the NTT and, later, the 8m-class telescopes like the VLT. The larger identification rate has increased the impact factor of optical observations in the multi-wavelength approach to INS astronomy, opening interesting possibilities for studies not yet possible at other wavelengths. With the HST on the way to its retirement, 8m class telescopes will have the task of bridging neutron star optical astronomy into a new era, characterised by the advent of the generation of extremely large telescopes (ELTs), like the European ELT (E-ELT). This will mark a major step forward in the field, enabling one to identify many more INSs, many of which from follow-ups of observations performed with future radio and X-ray megastruscture facilities like SKA and IXO. Moreover, the E-ELT will make it possible to carry out observations, like timing, spectroscopy, and polarimetry, which still represent a challenge for 8m-class telescopes and are, in many respects, crucial for studies on the structure and composition of the neutron star interior and of its magnetosphere. In this contribution, I briefly summarise the current status of INS optical observations, describe the main science goals for the E-ELT, and their impact on neutron star physics.
MICADO will equip the E-ELT with a first light capability for diffraction limited imaging at near-infrared wavelengths. The instruments observing modes focus on various flavours of imaging, including astrometric, high contrast, and time resolved. The
re is also a single object spectroscopic mode optimised for wavelength coverage at moderately high resolution. This contribution provides an overview of the key functionality of the instrument, outlining the scientific rationale for its observing modes. The interface between MICADO and the adaptive optics system MAORY that feeds it is summarised. The design of the instrument is discussed, focussing on the optics and mechanisms inside the cryostat, together with a brief overview of the other key sub-systems.
The Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO) is an extended cosmic ray observatory composed by a network of water-Cherenkov detectors spanning over different sites located at significantly different altitudes (from sea level up to more than $5000$,m a
.s.l.) and latitudes across Latin America, covering a huge range of geomagnetic rigidity cut-offs and atmospheric absorption/reaction levels. This detection network is designed to measure the temporal evolution of the radiation flux at ground level with extreme detail. The LAGO project is mainly oriented to perform basic research in three branches: high energy phenomena, space weather and atmospheric radiation at ground level. LAGO is built and operated by the LAGO Collaboration, a non-centralized collaborative union of more than 30 institutions from ten countries. These are the contributions of the LAGO Collaboration to the 34th International Cosmic Ray Conference, 30 July - 6 August 2015, The Hague, The Netherlands
Papers submitted to the 34th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC 2015, The Hague) by the IceCube-Gen2 Collaboration.
