Reduction of 3D Spectral Data, Obtained with the 6-meter Telescope
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Extract
Development of 3D spectral methods on the 6-meter telescope prompted the necessity of creating specialized software for data reduction, adapted to personal computers IBM AT/386/486 class. We had to concentrate our efforts on preparing the software for bidimensional spectral data produced by Multi-Pupil Integral Field Spectrograph of the 6-meter telescope (MPFS) and analog of panoramic spectrophotometer with spectral channeling, using scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer (PYTHEAS-6).
MPFS - analog of spectrograph TIGER (Courtes et al., 1988), developed for the 6-meter telescope, provides bidimensional spectroscopy of extended sources, allowing the simultaneous detection of 99 individual spectra, produced by a lens raster from 9 by 11 microlenses. The main features of this instrument are described in (Afanasiev et al, 1994).
