Abstract

A low dispersion spectrograph, employing a collimatorless optical design with a transmission grating and a CCD mounted within an evacuated camera, has recently been commissioned on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. It features high efficiency, through minimising the number of optical elements, minimising vignetting, and optimising the surface coatings for the designed spectral range.
