Fast digital spectrophometry of celestial bodies
An original digital slitless spectrophotometer with transparentdiffraction gratings has constructed, adjusted, and tested at theCrimean Astrophysical Observatory. It is mounted on the 0.5-m meniscustelescope, has high sensitivity, and enables spectrophotometricobservations of celestial bodies in the region 370-740 nm with exposureof several minutes and absolute photometric accuracy of several percent.The spectrophotometer is intended for studies of rapid variations in thespectra of stars, asteroids, comet nuclei, bright galactic nuclei, etc.
| Meridian observations made with the Carlsberg Automatic Meridian Circle at Brorfelde (Copenhagen University Observatory) 1981-1982
The 7-inch transit circle instrument with which the present position andmagnitude catalog for 1577 stars with visual magnitudes greater than11.0 was obtained had been equipped with a photoelectric moving slitmicrometer and a minicomputer to control the entire observationalprocess. Positions are reduced relative to the FK4 system for each nightover the whole meridian rather than the usual narrow zones. Thepositions of the FK4 stars used in the least squares solution are alsogiven in the catalog.
