More Information
Summary:A compact field spectrograph is described that provides a resolution of 500 or more with no entrance aperture, providing for substantial gain in light throughput, ideal for viewing multiple distant objects with or without telescopic aid, and providing the ability to observe and distinguish a multiplex of objects simultaneously, even if in motion, with minimal or no mechanical tracking required. Spectra may be viewed directly with the unaided eye, or photographed with common consumer cameras.
