Photometry with the New 1.5-meter Telescope of the Rozhen Observatory
The new 1.5-meter telescope (AZ1500) is operating at the National Astronomical Observatory Rozhen, Bulgaria. This paper gives an overview of the telescope and presents a snapshot of the current performance. Science observations are under way, and we give brief highlights from a number of programmes that have been enabled.
