Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph Instrument Handbook for Cycle 24 > Chapter 3: STIS Capabilities, Design, Operations, and Observations > 3.1 Instrument Capabilities . ... Instrument Capabilities . ... First-order gratings cover the full spectral range and are designed for spatially resolved spectroscopy using a long slit. ... STIS can be used to obtain: . ... STIS is a versatile instrument that can be applied to a broad range of scientific programs. ...

... NICS will be the only infrared instrument for the first light of the TNG; as a consequence, we decided to incorporate a sufficient degree of operation flexibility by providing the instrument with six different observing modes, three aimed at imaging and three at spectroscopy: . ... It will be possible to use the narrow band filters as order sorters; this will allow to perform high resolution long-slit spectroscopy in the wavelength ranges covered by the available narrow band filters. ...

FLAMES is the multi-object, intermediate and high resolution spectrograph of the VLT. Mounted at UT2, FLAMES can access targets over a field of view 25 arcmin in diameter. ... GIRAFFE allows the observation of up to 130 targets at a time or to do integral field spectroscopy, with intermediate resolution (either R ~ 25000 or R ~ 10000). ... Questions related to service mode observations and proposal preparation should be addressed to the User Support Department. ... Instrument Operation Team . ...

Cameras for TDI Applications Princeton Instruments offers several rectangular format cameras that are ideal for TDI applications, which require high resolution in one direction only. This allows for a lower cost system with the same high dynamic range and performance of square format imaging arrays. ... TDI Applications Imaging of conveyor belts is a common industrial application of TDI. ... Many non-destructive inspection applications require economical high resolution Xray imaging. ...

Next: The ESO VLT CCD Detectors Software . ... Up: Instrument-Specific Software . ... The framework for data calibration and analysis of the VLT instrumentation is presented, based on the concepts of a calibration plan, pipeline calibration, quality control, and archiving of calibrated data for a ground-based observatory. ... Quality Control Pipeline provides quality assessment for instrument performance data and observing conditions, and tests the results of the Reduction Pipeline. ...

... ST-ECF, ESO, STScI and the NICMOS IDT organized a workshop on near infrared imaging from space and ground was held in Pula on May 26-27, 1998. ... The meeting was held in May 1998, about one year after science observations started with NICMOS, and about half a year before the Infrared Spectrometer and Array Camera (ISAAC) starts to operate on the VLT. Currently, it is expected that NICMOS will operate until the end of 1998. ...

... Astrophysics Group . ... FIRST . ... This site is an initiative by MRAO Cambridge to provide improved access for the UK to the images being produced from the FIRST survey. ... Note that a small image returned by this server will have different gridding and orientation from an image of corresponding position and size returned by the FIRST CUTOUT server at the main site. ... This site may evolve to provide more of the facilities available at the FIRST main site in due course. ...

... CorMASS (Cornell Massachusetts Slit Spectrograph) is a low-resolution (R~300) prism cross-dispersed NIR Spectrograph. It has been used on the Palomar Observatory 60-inch telescope, the Vatican Observatory 1.8-meter telescope, and the Magellan 6.5-meter telescope but resides at APO until further notice. ... A remotely operated flip mirror allows the use of a slit viewing mode for
