Demetra has been suggested, and it is certainly on my list of things to try. I was secretly hoping that another eShel user or two had seen this specific issue.

Much appreciated,

eShel merged orders issue

I am hoping someone might be able to shed some light on a curious problem that appears in the merged orders of eShel spectra processed in ISIS. The artefacts appear as 'bumps' at the points where individual orders meet in a merged spectrum and are particularly evident towards the red end, and almost ...

Nova Men 2022 (AT 2022ufh)

Greetings all,

A nova for the 'southerners'. It's rising mid-evening, and I'm sure François will appreciate on-going observations.

Alpy at f/3 ?

I have a friend who is considering buying an Alpy to attach to a small Riccardi-Honders telescope at f/3. I presume it will work, not withstanding the possibility of light loss due to vignetting ?
