Project Details

Description

The Gemini High-Resolution Optical SpecTrograph (GHOST) instrument is being developed for the Gemini telescopes. GHOST uses a high resolution asymmetric white-pupil Echelle spectrograph fed by two moveable optical-fibre image-slicing integral-field-units located at the Gemini Cassegrain focus.
The instrument provides a simultaneous wavelength coverage from 363nm to at least 900nm at a resolution of R=50k-75k.
