Re: Suspected/Misclassified Symbiotics: spectra required

Jaroslav, here the spectrum of TYC 1371-60-1, from your your target list. The spectrum is taken by using a Newton 250 mm f/4 telescope and un Star'Ex spectrograph (3D printing setup) at the low resolution version (R=750) : http://www.astrosurf.com/buil/forum27/_tyc1371-60-1_20211130_023.png (no appa...

Re: VY Scl CVs campaign for HST

A coordinated observation with Olivier for an instructive comparison. The star VY Scl observed this time from France, but at the very low elevation of 14° above horizon (very strong absorption in the blue because of the air mass). I used a 8-inch Newton only and the Star'Ex spectrograph configured f...

Re: Star'Ex spectrograph

Star'Ex can easily be transformed into a low resolution spectrograph (R = 2000-2500), see on this page in part 4.4: http://www.astrosurf.com/solex/sol-ex-stars-en.html See also this video which shows my equipment and some of my observational "secrets" (in French sorry): https://youtu.be/5n...

Re: UVEX(4) G600 IR slit25µ multi-fentes claires

C'est très propre Pierre. Belle démo ! Actuellement je teste l'étalonnage permanent en haute résolution du coté de Halpha avec 4 lampes néon sur l'araignée du secondaire. Ca marche bien (j'ai un étalonnage à chaque image). Faut que je finisse d'intégrer le traitement dans SpecINTI (pour Star'Ex et a...

Star'Ex spectrograph

Je teste actuellement le spectrographe Star'Ex dans la configuration du kit optique 2 qui va être disponible en septembre prochain. Il s'agit d'une légère évolution du premier kit (meilleure correction chromatique, éléments pour fabriquer un système de guidage). Je rappelle que Star'Ex est une décli...
