چکیده

We present here the precise wavelength calibration of a high-resolution spectrum using Uranium (U) lines in range 3809 - 6833 \AA\ for precision radial velocity measurements exoplanet detection or related astrophysical sciences. identify 1540 well-resolved U from (R=67,000) uranium-argon hollow cathode lamp (UAr HCL) PARAS spectrograph aforesaid range. calculate neutral and first allowed transitions (Ritz wavelength) its known energy levels compare them with our observed central wavelengths. measure an offset -0.15 m\AA\space final line list. The list has average measurement uncertainty 15 m s$^{-1}$ (0.013 pixels 0.28 m\AA). included these to data analysis framework perform then multi-order Radial Velocity (RV) spectra. typical dispersion residuals around solution UAr spectrum, lines, is found be 0.8 m\AA\space($\sim$45 s$^{-1}$). With use this list, we results RV on-sky source (A standard star), off-sky along HCL. absolute drift difference between two fibers (inter-fiber drift) span 6.5 hours 88 cm s$^{-1}$, (${\sigma_{RV}}$) star, HD55575 over course $\sim$450 days 3.2 s$^{-1}$. These are good agreement previous ones measured ThAr It proves that HCL $\sim$ 99\% pure-Th replaceable spectrographs such as (R $\leq$ 67,000) achieve 1-3 visible region.

On the Use of Absorption Cells as a Wavelength Reference for Precision Radial Velocity Measurements in the near Infrared

Considerable interest is now focused on the detection of terrestrial mass planets around M dwarfs, and radial velocity surveys with high-resolution spectrographs in the near infrared are expected to be able to discover such planets. We explore the possibility of using commercially available molecular absorption gas cells as a wavelength reference standard for high-resolution fiber-fed spectrogr...

An Inexpensive Field-widened Monolithic Michelson Interferometer for Precision Radial Velocity Measurements

We have constructed a thermally compensated field-widened monolithic Michelson interferometer that can be used with a medium-resolution spectrograph to measure precise Doppler radial velocities of stars. Our prototype monolithic fixed-delay interferometer is constructed with off-the-shelf components and assembled using a hydrolysis bonding technique. We installed and tested this interferometer ...

Precision Length Measurements by Multi-Wavelength Interferometry

Three different applications of multi-wavelength interferometry are reviewed which have been developed at PTB. They demonstrate the high precision achievable by this technique on multiple scales, from absolute geodetic distances up to 10 m, over prismatic bodies, e.g. gauge blocks, in the sub-meter regime, down to the microscopic roughness of surfaces.

An Analytical Piecewise Radial Distortion Model for Precision Camera Calibration

|The common approach to radial distortion is by the means of polynomial approximation, which introduces distortion-speci c parameters into the camera model and requires estimation of these distortion parameters. The task of estimating radial distortion is to nd a radial distortion model that allows easy undistortion as well as satisfactory accuracy. This paper presents a new piecewise radial di...

Cross - correlation radial velocity measurements ofchromospherically

We present observational radial velocity curves for 12 chromospherically active binary systems and individual measurements for a further 5 systems. These binaries are Six of our target binaries do not agree with published ephemerides or orbital parameters. We also present a rigourous derivation of the resolution limit for binary star cross-correlation radial velocities. Using synthetic spectral...
