Scientific paper
The development and performance of optical instruments for ground-based and space astronomy are discussed in reviews and reports and illustrated with drawings, diagrams, graphs, photographs, and sample images and spectra. Topics examined include Fabry-Perot spectrometers and interferometers, fiber-optic coupling, IR instruments, detectors and detector software, space instrumentation, and general instrumentation. Consideration is given to the IR and visible detector electronics of IRAS, grazing-incidence focal-plane instruments for 6.5-175 nm wavelengths, a solar Lyman-alpha coronagraph, the multiple-spacecraft Michelson stellar interferometer, an imaging telescope for gamma-ray astronomy, the high-resolution spectrograph for the Space Telescope, differential speckle interferometers, the all-reflecting coude spectrograph of the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, and the faint-object red spectrograph of the Anglo-Australian Observatory.
