ANNA - Low resolution slit spectrograph
Low-resolution slit spectrograph ANNA is mounted at right Nasmyth focus of the 1.2m telescope. The first light was obtained in August 2011 and then the device was send back for revision. Current modification works since February 2013.
The instrument is used successfully to determine spectral types of stars up to 12m for mass spectral classification of stars in open clusters and for determination or confirmation of types of variable stars and exoplanet systems discovered with MASTER-II-Ural telescope.
Observing time on the spectrograph is open to proposers from other scientific organizations. To submit your proposal please contact Mr. Vadim Krushinsky via krussh [at] gmail [dot] com (e-mail).
