Hi All, I am a newcomer to spectroscopy so I would appreciate a little assistance. I have attached an image in UserFolders>GBoxer of Betelguese and I wondered...
Hi Grant, congratulations on takig your first spectrum. There are some clear broad molecular lines.(From Titanium Oxide in the star and also from Oxygen in our...
Hy Robin and Rainer, thanks for Your comments an info. I was pleased to recognize the characteristic shape of an 1a-type SN in the noisy background. SN2011by...
Hello, new in my user-folder (Roland_Baehr): the second attemp of a StAn-spectrum of SN2011by from Mai 3, 2011 23:00 - less noisy caused by better weather...

Hello, The french national research organization (CNRS) organized the first Pro/Am astrophysics school in May 2003 at Oléron, followed by one in 2006 and...
Hello, at the beginning of May, I was lucky with the weather, and additionally had the oppotunity to image the SN itself under quite tranparent skies. Smaller...
Hallo Torsten, Very interesting of what the Star Analyser is capable to do. I am at the moment installing a LISA Spectrograph on an 8" Ritchey Chrétien I just...
Dear all, Find attached my first spectral images of Arctures and Vega using the staranalyser100 and calibrated in VSPEC. The spectra are imaged with a Canon...
Hi Rob, welcome to the world of spectroscopy, I discontinured pretty pictures last fall and have never looked back. Post the spectrum and I will calibrate ...
HI Richard, You realy stopped making nice astro images in favour of spectroscopy? I find spectroscopy really interesting, my aducation was in physics, but...
Rob Ive attached a linear and a non linear calibration of your Vega using RSpec. I rotated your spectrum to get the best profile as when its not lined...
Hi Rob, Congratulations on your first spectra. H beta is clear in the Vega spectrum at 4861A and H alpha and H gamma are also visible. The difference in...
Oh, and just one more thing Rob. Did you use the RAW images from the camera? This helps get the best spectra as the RAW images are not affected by any...
Hi robin, I beleive you have used the Star Analyser witha DSI Pro II CCD camera. If so, how far from the camera face did you mount the SA? I have removed the...
Hi Jeff, I have a DSI pro but not the Pro II and I am not sure what your adapters add up to, but based on the CCD size (752x8.6um pixels) you should be able to...
Thanks Robin, That is exactly what I needed. Jeff Hopkins Phoenix Observatory (187283) Counting Photons Phoenix, Arizona USA www.hposoft.com/Astro/astro.html ...
Hi Richard, Thanks for your feedback. It's obvious I still have to learn a lot about handling the raw data but I'm I made a good start. I checked Rspec but...
Hi Robin, Many thanks for your feedback, this will help me a lot and indeed I need to pay more attention on focussing. I will check out your website regarding...
Hi all, I tried today to calibrate my Vega spectrum again including the instrumental responce calibration. Find the result attached. I hope we get clear nights...

Hi Rob, Nice work. I think your instrument response must be a little out between H alpha and H gamma. There should not be a dip there. It takes a bit of fine...
It looks like Yahoo may have mangled the attachment. Here it is again, zipped ... From: Robin Leadbeater To: staranalyser@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 29,...
Hi all, Yesterday it became clear during the evening which gave me the opportunity to go again for Vega but now with the SC3 modded webcam. I made a 30s AVI...
This is to remind everyone that a week from this coming Saturday on 11 June we will be having out SW Astrophysical get together at my place in Phoenix. This...
Hi Jeff, Thanks for the open invitation. As I live in Germany, please don't be offended if I can't make on Saturday. Ever thought to webcast the session online...
Hi Rob, A nice result, though your normalisation has gone a bit out on the blue end. It is difficult to fit the smooth curve to that area where the instrument...
