BOOK
Amateur astronomers interested in learning more about
astronomical spectroscopy now have the guide they need. It
provides detailed information about how to get started
inexpensively with low-resolution spectroscopy, and then how to
move on to more advanced high-resolution spectroscopy. Uniquely
the instructions concentrate very much on the practical aspects
of using commercially-available spectroscopes, rather than simply
explaining how spectroscopes work
The book includes a clear explanation of the laboratory theory
behind astronomical spectrographs, and goes on to extensively
cover the practical application of astronomical spectroscopy in
detail. Four popular and reasonably-priced commercially available
diffraction grating spectrographs are used as examples. The first
is a low-resolution transmission diffraction grating, the Star
Analyser spectrograph. The second is an inexpensive fiber optic
coupled bench spectrograph that can be used to learn more about
spectroscopy. The third is a newcomer, the ALPY 600 spectrograph
The fourth spectrograph considered is at the other end of the
market both in performance and cost, the high-resolution Lhires
III. While considerably more expensive, this is a popular and
excellent scientific instrument, that allows more advanced
amateur astronomers to produce scientifically valuable
data
With all of these tools in place, the amateur astronomer is
well-prepared to forger deeper into the night sky using
spectroscopy
