curious question maybe I try to find a used STAR ANALYSER for sale somwhere in north america or in canada certainly a very rare equipment but If I do not...
Hi Jacques, you can buy a new one from the supplier and have it in 10 days or less. Now that the Canadian dollar is more valuable than the US dollar, you can...
... And in October, I suggested to Adirondack Video Astronomy that they distribute the SA, which I would then purchase from them. their Jim Barot emailed me...
Hi everyone, First I hope 2008 is a good year for everyone! I have added a couple of images to the User folders/MarkD area. I imaged EZ CMa, (WR-6) recently....
I'm looking for a filter flatfield about SA100 Reference please Best regards Je cherche un filtre pour la P.L.U du SA 100 car je crois avoir vu ça quelque...
Hello Pierre, I too would be interested in a good method to make a flat field for spectrographs without a slit like the Star Analyser. I asked Christian Buil...
maybe a haft of ping pong ball could do the job very well I thing about the photometer of the old day whit white dome for direct metering jack 47'N 71'W I'm...
Hi Jaques, Making a flat field is the easy part (For the LHIRES spectrograph I use a T shirt over the end of the scope and point a Halogen lamp at it) The...
Bonjour à tous Est il vraiment necessaire de réaliser un Flat avec le S.A 100? Cordialement.........Pierre Hello the list Is there really necessarily to...
Hello Pierre, It depends how accurate you need the results. For best accuracy we should use a flat to correct for dirt on the sensor and vignetting of the...
Hi Pierre, Everyone, I have just checked with Ernst Pollman of the VdS spectroscopy group. http://www.stsci.de/fg/index_e.htm He uses a slitless spectrograph...

Pierre, La lumière de ta cible passe par le "filtre" de l'atmosphère, de ton télescope, de ton réseau, et aussi après dispersion de ton capteur. Si tu...
This effect was pointed out by Olivier Thizy on the spectro-ml group. Each pixel in a colour camera is sensitive to a particular colour (R,G,B) and they are...
Bonjour à tous Comme pour le Lhires 3 et le Barèges nous utilisons une lampe de calibration au néon. Je suppose que pour le SA 100 , il en est de même. ...
Bonjour à tous..........Hi all Je ne comprends pas comment avec une dispersion de 5.87 A/pixel (Star Analyser spectrograph christian buil) on peut balayer...
Pierre, La dispersion donne la taille du pixel, c'est-à -dire la taille du segment en longueur d'onde sur ton capteur. Attention à ne pas confondre avec la...
Bonjour Pierre, To see the whole spectrum you need to put the SA closer to the CCD. For your camera the correct distance is 30-75mm. This will give you good...
