Simulations for Multi-Object Spectrograph Planet Surveys
Radial velocity surveys for extra-solar planets generally require substantial amounts of large telescope time in order to monitor a sufficient number of stars. Two of the aspects which can limit such surveys are the single-object capabilities of the spectrograph, and an inefficient observing strategy for a given observing window. In addition, the detection rate of extra-solar planets using the ...
متن کاملA Multi-object Double Spectrograph for the Large Binocular Telescope
We are building a Multi-Object Double Spectrograph for the Large Binocular Telescope. The main themes of our planned research with the instrument are the formation and evolution of galaxies and their nuclei and the evolution of large-scale structure in the universe, although we expect that the spectrograph will be used for many other varieties of programs as well. The science goals for the inst...
متن کاملFireball Multi Object Spectrograph: As-built optic performances
Fireball (Faint Intergalactic Redshifted Emission Balloon) is a NASA/CNES balloon-borne experiment to study the faint diffuse circumgalactic medium from the line emissions in the ultraviolet (200 nm) above 37 km flight altitude. Fireball relies on a Multi Object Spectrograph (MOS) that takes full advantage of the new high QE, low noise 13 μm pixels UV EMCCD. The MOS is fed by a 1 meter diameter...
متن کاملIris2 : a Working Infrared Multi-object Spectrograph & Camera
IRIS2 is a near-infrared imager and spectrograph based on a HAWAII1 HgCdTe detector. It provides wide-field (7.7'×7.7') imaging capabilities at 0.4486 " /pixel sampling, long-slit spectroscopy at λ/Δλ≈2400 in each of the J, H and K passbands, and the ability to do multi-object spectroscopy in up to three masks. These multi-slit masks are laser cut, and have been manufactured for both traditiona...
متن کاملThe LAOG‐Planet Imaging Surveys
With the development of high-contrast imaging techniques and infrared detectors, vast efforts have been devoted during the past decade to detect and characterize lighter, cooler and closer companions to nearby stars, and ultimately image new planetary systems. Complementary to other observing techniques (radial velocity (RV), transit, micro-lensing, pulsar-timing), this approach has opened a ne...
