We describe the design of a suspended low- and medium-resolution spectrograph (R ≈ 300–1300) designed and made at the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences for the 1.6-m AZT-33IK telescope of Sayan Observatory of the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. We report the results of laboratory measurements of the parameters of the instrument and tests performed on the 1-m Zeiss-1000 telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences. We measured the total quantum efficiency of the “spectrograph + telescope + detector” system on AZT-33IK telescope, which at its maximum reaches 56%. Such a hight transparency of the spectrograph allows it to be used with the 1.6-m telescope to determine the types and redshifts of objects with integrated magnitudes mAB ≈ 20–21, and this result was confirmed by actual observations.  相似文献

We propose a project of a high-resolution (R = 100 000) fiber-fed spectrograph for comprehensive studies of stellar atmospheres, exoplanet searches, asteroseismological studies, studies of stellar magnetism, active nuclei of bright galaxies, interstellar medium, etc. We present the optical scheme of the instrument. The operating wavelength region spans from 4000 to 7500 Å. We also present the optical scheme of the pre-fiber optic unit of the spectrograph. The unit supports four main modes of spectroscopic observations: the mode of traditional spectroscopy with the spectrum of the studied object taken along with the background spectrum in the immediate vicinity of the object; the mode of the simultaneous recording of the spectrum of the object and that of the wavelength standard; the mode of high-precision spectroscopy with an iodine cell, and the mode of spectropolarimetric observations with the measurement of all the Stokes parameters.  相似文献

A slitless UBVR spectrograph has been built for use on small telescopes. Test observations on the Zeiss-600 telescope at the Terskol peak demonstrated that the spectrograph is an efficient instrument for studying high-speed processes in variable stars with a high temporal resolution. The spectrograph resolving power R ≈ 100 in the vicinity of λ = 480 nm and the error in the determination of the wavelength is approximately 3 nm. The spectrograph provides a moderate signal-to-noise ratio for stars up to 16 m . It permits one to measure equivalent widths of unblended lines down to 0.1 nm. The developed special software based on the theory of quantum statistics makes it possible to detect relative variations in the spectrum of approximately 10?5–10?6 of the bolometric flux of the star. Observations with the spectrograph made it possible to detect variations of emissions in Balmer lines and Ca II H, K lines in the EV Lac flare star in the subsecond range. The spectroscopic monitoring permits one to study stellar flares with small amplitude, to carry out a comprehensive colorimetric analysis of flare plasma, and to determine temperatures and sizes of flares in the light intensity maximum. Observations of the transit of the HAT-P-1 B exoplanet demonstrate that the chromospheric activity power of the parent star does not vary during the transit. The slitless spectrograph with a low resolving capacity opens new prospects in studying active processes occurring on stars’ surfaces.  相似文献

光谱仪是1 m太阳望远镜的主要终端设备之一,该望远镜采用地平式的机架结构和修正的格里高利光学系统。在望远镜跟踪太阳时,由于地平式望远镜的自身运动特点和光学系统中平面反射镜的存在,其光谱仪狭缝所在平面上的太阳像随时间绕主光轴旋转,因此光谱仪必须进行消旋才能正常工作。首先深入研究了光谱仪狭缝平面上像的旋转变化,分析其旋转范围、速度和加速度随时角变化的特性,然后根据光谱仪消旋精度并结合像的旋转特性提出伺服系统位置检测和驱动电机的主要性能指标,最后给出光谱仪消旋伺服控制方案。  相似文献

One of the key goals of NASA’s astrophysics program is to answer the question: How did galaxies evolve into the spirals and elliptical galaxies that we see today? We describe a space mission concept called Galaxy Evolution Spectroscopic Explorer (GESE) to address this question by making a large spectroscopic survey of galaxies at a redshift, z～1 (look-back time of ～8 billion years). GESE is a 1.5-m space telescope with an ultraviolet (UV) multi-object slit spectrograph that can obtain spectra of hundreds of galaxies per exposure. The spectrograph covers the spectral range, 0.2–0.4 μm at a spectral resolving power, R～500. This observed spectral range corresponds to 0.1–0.2 μm as emitted by a galaxy at a redshift, z=1. The mission concept takes advantage of two new technological advances: (1) light-weighted, wide-field telescope mirrors, and (2) the Next-Generation MicroShutter Array (NG-MSA) to be used as a slit generator in the multi-object slit spectrograph.  相似文献

This paper presents the latest observations from the newly built solar radio spectrograph at the Chashan Solar Observatory. On July 18, 2016, the spectrograph records a solar spike burst event, which has several episodes showing harmonic structures, with the second, third, and fourth harmonics. The lower harmonic radio spike emissions are observed later than the higher harmonic bands, and the temporal delay of the second (third) harmonic relative to the fourth harmonic is about 30?–?40 (10) ms. Based on the electron cyclotron maser emission mechanism, we analyze possible causes of the temporal delay and further infer relevant coronal parameters, such as the magnetic field strength and the electron density at the radio source.  相似文献

We present spectroscopic observations of a massive globular cluster in the dwarf irregular galaxy Sextans B, discovered by us on the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 (HST WFPC2) images. Long-slit spectra were obtained with the SCORPIO spectrograph on the 6-m telescope at the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences. We determine the age, metallicity and alpha-element abundance ratio for the globular cluster to be 2 ± 1 Gyr, ?1.35 ±0.25 dex, and 0.1 ± 0.1 dex, respectively. Main photometric and structural parameters of it were determined using our surface photometry on the HST images. The mass (～105 M⊙), luminosity and structural parameters appear to be typical of the globular clusters in our own Galaxy. Our findings shed new light on the evolutionary history of Sextans B.  相似文献

The WUVS (WSO-UV Ultra Violet Spectrographs) consists of two high resolution spectrographs (R=50000) covering the Far-UV range of 115–176 nm and the Near-UV range of 174–310 nm, and a long-slit spectrograph (R=1000) covering the wavelength range of 115–305 nm. Significant progress in the CCD development gives a possibility to use back-illuminated CCD detectors with anti-reflection coating for observations in the UV. These detectors are under construction by e2v company (UK) based on their heritage of detectors production for numerous space missions including those for UV- and far-UV. The main parameters of WUVS detector subsystems are described.  相似文献

Spectral types (M4–M6), effective temperatures T ef (2700–2900 K), and free fall accelerations logg (4.0–4.5) are determined for five M dwarfs using their energy distributions in the spectral range λλ = 680…840 nm. Stellar spectra with resolutions R = 4000 were obtained using the IMACS spectrograph mounted on the ESO Walter Baade 6.5-m telescope. The spectral types are derived from spectral indices and the effective temperatures of the stars are estimated based on their spectral types. Values of T ef and logg are also derived from the comparison between the observed and theoretical energy distributions, calculated both for dust-free, standard NextGen model atmospheres of red dwarfs, and for semiempirical models considering the presence of dust in stellar atmospheres according to the technique developed by Pavlenko et al. We determine dust parameters for stellar atmospheres of these stars, and establish that it is necessary to account for the decrease in concentration of TiO molecules due to their condensation on dust grains, when T ef < 3000 K. We conclude that the radiation scattering by dust grains does not have an appreciable effect on energy distributions in the spectra of the considered stars.  相似文献

We have obtained spectra of Pluto on six nights during February 1979 using the Cassegrain Digicon spectrograph on the 2.1-m Struve reflector and the IDS spectrograph on the 2.7-m reflector of McDonald Observatory. These spectra, with nominal resolution of 6–7 Å, have been reduced to relative fluxes. Relative albedos were then calculated using the solar irradiances of Arvesen et al. (1969). The spectra taken in the blue show no indication of the upturn in albedo at λ < 3800 A? previously reported by Fix et al. (1970). The lack of a uv upturn cannot be interpreted in terms of a Rayleigh scattering atmosphere unless the albedo of the underlying surface is known. From the lack of methane absorption at the wavelength of the 6190- or 7270-Å methane bands we derive an upper limit of 1–3 m-am of gaseous CH4. The albedo curve has a constant slope between 3500 and 7300 Å. The only other solar system body which has this feature is an S-type asteroid.  相似文献

We are undertaking an extensive observational campaign of a number of non-radially pulsating stars using the high-resolution HERCULES spectrograph on the 1.0-m telescope at the Mt John University Observatory. This is part of a large world-wide multi-site campaign to improve mode-identification techniques in non-radially pulsating stars, particularly for g-mode pulsators. This paper outlines our campaign and presents preliminary results for one γ Doradus star, HD 40745, and one β Cephei star, HD 61068. We have used a representative cross-correlation line-profile technique presented by Wright in 2008 to extract line profiles and these have then been analyzed using the FAMIAS package due to Zima published in 2006 to derive a spectroscopic mode identification.  相似文献

We present the results of the reduction of our observations for the spectroscopic binary ADS 2984A (B0 II–B0 III), which along with its visual component ADS 2984B (SZ Cam) are the brightest members of the open star cluster NGC 1502. The spectroscopic data were obtained with a fiber-fed echelle spectrograph (R = 15 000) at the 1.2-m telescope of the Astronomical Observatory of the Ural Federal University. The period of ADS 2984A (P orb = 57.24 ± 0.05 days) has been found for the first time. This spectroscopic binary is shown to belong to the SB1 type. We have determined the parameters of the radial velocity curve for the visible spectroscopic component, V 0 = ?5.5 ± 1.2 km s?1 and K = 41.5 ± 1.7 km s?1. The lower mass limit for the invisible spectroscopic component has been estimated to be ~\(5M_ \odot \). Evidence for the presence of a stellar wind outflowing from the surface of this blue giant is presented.  相似文献

Results are reported of a study of the atmospheric chemical composition for 12 F5-K0 type stars in the Hyades cluster. The study uses spectra obtained with the 1.93-m telescope of the Haute-Provence Observatory (France) with the ELODIE echelle-type spectrograph in the wavelength range 440–680 nm. The spectral resolution is R = 40000, and S/N is ～50. The equivalent widths of the lines are measured in the wavelength range 510–680 nm. The main parameters of the stars are determined: the effective temperature T eff, the gravity logg, the microturbulence velocities V t , and the abundances of Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Y, La, Ce, and Nd. The abundance estimates for the dwarfs and giants are similar within the errors of determination, except for the Na abundances.  相似文献

A wavelength calibration system based on a laser frequency comb (LFC) was developed in a co-operation between the Kiepenheuer-Institut für Sonnenphysik, Freiburg, Germany and the Max-Planck-Institut für Quantenoptik, Garching, Germany for permanent installation at the German Vacuum Tower Telescope (VTT) on Tenerife, Canary Islands. The system was installed successfully in October 2011. By simultaneously recording the spectra from the Sun and the LFC, for each exposure a calibration curve can be derived from the known frequencies of the comb modes that is suitable for absolute calibration at the meters per second level. We briefly summarize some topics in solar physics that benefit from absolute spectroscopy and point out the advantages of LFC compared to traditional calibration techniques. We also sketch the basic setup of the VTT calibration system and its integration with the existing echelle spectrograph.  相似文献

The Multi-application Solar Telescope is a 50 cm off-axis Gregorian telescope that has been installed at the lake site of Udaipur Solar Observatory. For quasi-simultaneous photospheric and chromospheric observations, a narrow-band imager has been developed as one of the back-end instruments for this telescope. Narrow-band imaging is achieved using two lithium niobate Fabry–Perot etalons working in tandem as a filter. This filter can be tuned to different wavelengths by changing either voltage, tilt, or temperature of the etalons. To characterize the etalons, a Littrow spectrograph was set up in conjunction with a 15 cm Carl Zeiss Coudé solar telescope. The etalons were calibrated for the solar spectral lines Fe i 6173 Å, and Ca ii 8542 Å. In this work, we discuss the characterization of the Fabry–Perot etalons, specifically, the temperature and voltage tuning of the system for the spectral lines proposed for observations. We present the details of the calibration set-up and various tuning parameters. We also present solar images obtained using the system.  相似文献

The Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) is an ultraviolet spectrograph installed on the Hubble Space Telescope during Servicing Mission Four. COS covers 1150–3200 Å at spectral resolutions up to R～18,000. COS is the most sensitive UV spectrograph to have flown on HST. In this paper, I present science results from the first nine months of COS science operations, focusing on how COS has enabled probes of cosmic origins, from star and planet formation to the large scale structure of the modern universe.  相似文献

Two CCD spectra of the star V1016 Ori were obtained with the echelle spectrograph of the 6-m (BTA) telescope. An analysis of these spectra allowed us to estimate the star's atmospheric parameters (T eff=29700 K, logg=4.4) and projected rotational velocity (Vsini=60 km s?1) and to determine its chemical composition. Chemical anomalies were found. The Fe abundance is nearly solar; He, C, O, Mg, Al, Si are underabundant; and Ne, S, Zn are overabundant. The “spectroscopic” radius of the primary is in satisfactory agreement with its radius determined from the light and radial-velocity curves if the small star is assumed to lie in front of the giant star during an eclipse. The paradox of the primary's anomalous radius is thus resolved. A table of line equivalent widths and a portion of the star's spectrum are given in Appendices 1 and 2.  相似文献

We are completing the construction of GIANO, a high resolution near-infrared cryogenic spectrograph for the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG). Most of the optics are made of aluminium and operate at cryogenic temperature. We evaluated the optical degradation due to mis-matches between the thermal expansion coefficients of the different aluminium parts of the instrument. We performed accurate measurements of the relative thermal expansion coefficients (CTE) of Al-6061 and Al-6082 over the 300–77 K temperatures range. We find that the two alloys have identical thermal expansion coefficient within a maximum (3σ) uncertainty of Δα/α?<?0.28%. Our results show that it is possible to overcome the problem of the alignment of a cryogenic instrument, manufacturing the curved optics, the optics’ holders and the optical bench with different metallic alloys with small CTE mismatch (Al-6061 and Al-6082). This conclusion has also been confirmed by the results of the optical tests with the instrument cooled in the laboratory, showing no significant image quality degradation.  相似文献

We present a detailed analysis of seven young stars observed with the spectrograph SOPHIE at the Observatoire de Haute‐Provence for which the chemical composition was incomplete or absent in the literature. For five stars, we derived the stellar parameters and chemical compositions using our automatic pipeline optimized for F, G, and K stars, while for the other two stars with high rotational velocity, we derived the stellar parameters by using other information (parallax), and performed a line‐by‐line analysis. Chromospheric emission‐line fluxes from Caii are obtained for all targets. The stellar parameters we derive are generally in good agreement with what is available in the literature. We provide a chemical analysis of two of the stars for the first time. The star HIP 80124 shows a strong Li feature at 670.8 nm implying a high lithium abundance. Its chemical pattern is not consistent with it being a solar sibling, as has been suggested. (© 2015 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)  相似文献

Between 1982 and 1984 we carried out spectral observations of EW Lac with a grating spectrograph on the 60/90 cm Schmidt telescope of Beijing Observatory. We found that its Balmer shell absorption lines changed within a short time, from a single absorption core to a double absorption core and later changed back to a single core. We measured the radial velocity of the Balmer lines and did not find any obvious Balmer progression, while the radial velocity of the double core, particularly the V component, showed clear variations in time. We think the variations reflect ejection of shell matter.  相似文献
