The Echelle spectrograph operating at Vainu Bappu Telescope (VBT) is a general purpose instrument designed for high resolution spectroscopy. It is being considered for precision Doppler measurements without altering the existing design and…

The Echelle spectrograph operating at Vainu Bappu Telescope (VBT), India, is a general purpose instrument used for many high-resolution spectroscopic observations. A concerted effort is being made to expand the scientific capability of the…

An interferometer system for use at the 2.34 meter Vainu Bappu Telescope (VBT), situated at Vainu Bappu Observatory (VBO), Kavalur, to obtain speckle-grams of astronomical objects in the visible wavelength, has been developed. Laboratory…

Accurate wavelength calibration is an important factor for any measurement with high resolution spectrographs. Stellar spectrum comprises of discrete absorption or emission lines whose position is precisely determined by calibrating the…

A new optical speckle interferometer for use at the 2.34 meter Vainu Bappu Telescope (VBT), at Vainu Bappu Observatory (VBO), Kavalur, India, has been designed and developed. Provisions have been made for observation both at the prime focus…

The 2.34m Vainu Bappu Telescope (VBT) is a reflecting telescope that operates in two modes, prime focus and cassegrain focus, and is equipped with two instruments. In prime focus mode, the telescope has the F-number of f/3.25, and the…

We present a method of frequency stabilizing a broadband etalon that can serve as a high-precision wavelength calibrator for an Echelle spectrograph. Using a laser to probe the Doppler-free saturated absorption of the rubidium D2 line, we…

We developed a tip-tilt system to compensate the turbulence induced image motion for 1.3 m telescope at Vainu Bappu Observatory, Kavalur. The instrument is designed to operate at visible wavelength band (480-700 nm) with a field of view…

We present the first light commissioning results from the Physical Research Laboratory (PRL) optical fiber-fed high resolution cross-dispersed Echelle Spectrograph. It is capable of a single- shot spectral coverage of 3700A to 8600A at R ~…

Echelle spectrographs currently provide some of the most precise and detailed spectra in astronomy, the interpretation of which sometimes depends on the wavelength calibration accuracy. In some applications, such as constraining…

The CHIRON optical high-resolution echelle spectrometer was commissioned at the 1.5m telescope at CTIO in 2011. The instrument was designed for high throughput and stability, with the goal of monitoring radial velocities of bright stars…

We present here CAFE, the Calar Alto Fiber-fed Echelle spectrograph, a new instrument built at the Centro Astronomico Hispano Alem\'an (CAHA). CAFE is a single fiber, high-resolution ($R\sim$70000) spectrograph, covering the wavelength…

The eShel, an off-the-shelf, fiber-fed echelle spectrograph ($R \approx 10,000$), was installed on the 1m telescope at the Wise observatory in Israel. We report the installation of the multi-order spectrograph, and describe our pipeline to…

We propose to use a high throughput and high precision multi-object dispersed fixed-delay interferometer for all sky Doppler surveys for extrasolar planets. This instrument, a combination of a fixed-delay interferometer with a moderate…

We present spectrograph design details and initial radial velocity results from the PRL optical fiber-fed high-resolution cross-dispersed echelle spectrograph (PARAS), which has recently been commissioned at the Mt Abu 1.2 m telescope, in…

We report the atmospheric turbulence parameters namely, atmospheric seeing, the tilt-anisoplanatic angle ($\theta_0$) and the coherence time ($\tau_0$), measured under various sky conditions, at Vainu Bappu Observatory in Kavalur. Bursts of…

PARAS is a fiber-fed stabilized high-resolution cross-dispersed echelle spectrograph, located on the 1.2 m telescope in Mt. Abu India. Designed for exoplanet detection, PARAS is capable of single-shot spectral coverage of 3800 - 9600 A, and…

Transmission spectroscopy has proven to be an effective technique for characterizing exoplanet atmospheres. However, transmission spectroscopy requires planetary transits, which occur for only a small fraction of planetary systems due to…

In fiber-based spectroscopy within telescopes, a prevailing limitation has been the necessity to align the fiber diameter with the telescope's seeing conditions, often characterized by the Full Width at Half Maximum of the point spread…

Recent quasar spectroscopy from the VLT and Keck telescopes suggests that fundamental constants may not actually be constant. To better confirm or refute this result, systematic errors between telescopes must be minimized. We present a new…
