MOONS:用于VLT的新型多目标摄谱仪

MOONS: The New Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT

M. Cirasuolo, the MOONS consortium

摘要:

MOONS是目前正在为ESO的甚大望远镜(VLT)建造的新的多目标光学和近红外光谱仪。这一非凡的仪器首次结合了8米望远镜的收集能力、1000根光纤和单独的机器人定位器,以及在0.64-1.8微米波长范围内的低分辨率和高分辨率同时光谱覆盖。该设施将为天文学界提供一个强大的、世界领先的仪器,能够为银河系、河外和宇宙学的广泛研究服务。建设工作正在全速前进,这篇概述文章介绍了MOONS仪器的一些科学目标和技术描述。有关MOONS调查的更多详细信息,请参阅本期Messenger的其他专题文章。

英文摘要:

MOONS is the new Multi-Object Optical and Near-infrared Spectrograph currently under construction for the Very Large Telescope (VLT) at ESO. This remarkable instrument combines, for the first time, the collecting power of an 8-m telescope, 1000 fibres with individual robotic positioners, and both low- and high-resolution simultaneous spectral coverage across the 0.64-1.8 micron wavelength range. This facility will provide the astronomical community with a powerful, world-leading instrument able to serve a wide range of Galactic, extragalactic and cosmological studies. Construction is now proceeding full steam ahead and this overview article presents some of the science goals and the technical description of the MOONS instrument. More detailed information on the MOONS surveys is provided in the other dedicated articles in this Messenger issue.
