The MSS of the 6-m BTA telescope is a long-slit spectrograph, stationary installed in the rack of the Nasmyth-2 focus (Vasiliev et al. 1977, Panchuk 2001, Fig. 1). The main purpose of the instrument is the acquisition of one-order spectra of bright point-like and extended objects.

Design, engineering and manufacturing of the spectrograph were carried out in parallel with the creation of the BTA telescope. Thus, the MSS is the oldest operating instrument of the 6-m telescope. During its entire operational lifetime, the main components of the spectrograph have experienced several stages of modernisation (Panchuk 2001). Currently, the spectrograph is used primarily coupled with the circular polarization analyzer for the studies of stellar magnetic fields (e.g., Kudryavtsev et al. 2006).

In the polarimetry mode the observations of stars up to the 12 stellar magnitude are possible, recording a 500 ?-wide spectral region at a time with an average resolution of ?/?? = 15000.
