Title: | ELT-HIRES the High Resolution Spectrograph for the ELT: the IFU-SCAO module | Authors: | TOZZI, Andrea XOMPERO, MARCO OLIVA, Ernesto BONAGLIA, MARCO AGAPITO, GUIDO SANNA, Nicoletta ESPOSITO, Simone Giordano, Christophe DI RICO, Gianluca |
Issue Date: | 2018 | Volume: | Ground-based and Airborne Instrumentation for Astronomy VII | Editors: | Evans, Christopher J.; Simard, Luc; Takami, Hideki | Series: | PROCEEDINGS OF SPIE | Number: | 10702 | First Page: | 319 | Abstract: | We present the results from the phase A study of ELT-HIRES, an optical-infrared High Resolution Spectrograph for ELT, which has just been completed by a consortium of 30 institutes from 12 countries forming a team of about 200 scientists and engineers. The top science cases of ELT-HIRES will be the detection of life signatures from exoplanet atmospheres, tests on the stability of Nature's fundamental couplings, the direct detection of the cosmic acceleration. However, the science requirements of these science cases enable many other groundbreaking science cases. The baseline design, which allows to fulfil the top science cases, consists in a modular fiber- fed cross-dispersed echelle spectrograph with two ultra-stable spectral arms providing a simultaneous spectral range of 0.4-1.8 μm at a spectral resolution of 100,000. The fiber-feeding allows ELT-HIRES to have several, interchangeable observing modes including a SCAO module and a small diffraction-limited IFU. | Conference Name: | Ground-based and Airborne Instrumentation for Astronomy VII | Conference Place: | Austin, Texas, United States | Conference Date: | 10-15 June, 2018 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/30041 | URL: | https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/10702/2311289/ELT-HIRES-the-High-Resolution-Spectrograph-for-the-ELT/10.1117/12.2311289.short | ISSN: | 0277-786X | ISBN: | 9781510619579 9781510619586 |
