RE: [staranalyser] Re: gamma Cas spectra [1 Attachment]

Robin,
I got in to the user files quite easily tonight, and also added my new email: sim_jan@..., which I have made my main email address for staranalyser now. I don't know if you had a chance to look at my settings, but if not, with luck you may not have to. I don't know how the change of address works but I'll carry on checking the old one anyway.
Janet

>  The version of VSpec which I use is 3.3, from the Sky at Night CD.
 
 
Ah.. that might be the problem. There have been several revisions to VSpec and many bug fixes since then. I suggest doing a clean install of the current version (3.6) from the Visual Spec website.  Hopefully this will solve some of your problems.
 
Your gamma Cas spectrum looks fine. It processed OK.  I have attached an image showing the results of the processing steps (I cheated a bit and used the fact that gamma Cas is known to be a B0v star to calculate an instrument response)
 
The calculated instrument response is interesting. It looks like the red channel is set too high on your camera. Are you using a fixed daylight white balance setting?  This should give a more balanced response. Also check that you have selected the right model of camera in IRIS if that is the program you are using to convert from colour to greyscale.
 
My broadband is down again but when it is back up I will look into your membership settings to see if I can figure out what is going wrong.
 
Cheers
Robin
