... HST . ... HST Overview . ... The GHRS can obtain spectra from about 1150 to 3200 . ... The repeatability of fluxes is even better, being better than 1%; i.e., it is possible to compare measures of the same wavelength in the same star at different times to within 1% for observations with the LSA. ... The source to be observed may be placed in a Large Science Aperture (LSA) or a Small Science Aperture (SSA). ... This means that the SSA is better for obtaining spectra with the best resolution. ...

... December 21, 1997 . ... Advantages are briefly discussed of gaining in spectral resolution, which is accompanied by losses in signal level, as compared with the attempts to improve the accuracy of measurement of line parameters by means of rising the S/N ratio alone with increasing the exposure time. To partially solve the problem of observations of faint objects at the BTA a new design echelle spectrometer is proposed. high resolution spectroscopy . ...
