In the era of very large telescopes, long-term investigations are mainly performed with small professional instruments. Today they can be done using self-designed spectrographs and highly efficient CCD cameras, without the need for large financial investments.   This book explains the basic principles of spectroscopy, including the fundamental optical constraints and all mathematical aspects needed to understand the working principles in detail. It covers the complete theoretical and practical design of standard and Echelle spectrographs. Readers are guided through all necessary calculations, enabling them to engage in spectrograph design. The book also examines data acquisition with CCD cameras and fiber optics, as well as the constraints of specific data reduction and possible sources of error. In closing it briefly highlights some main aspects of the research on massive stars and spectropolarimetry as an extension of spectroscopy. The book offers a comprehensive introduction to spectroscopy for students of physics and astronomy, as well as a valuable resource for amateur astronomers interested in learning the principles of spectroscopy and spectrograph design.Astronomy and Planetary Sciences,2366-0082Observations, AstronomicalAstronomy—ObservationsLasersPhotonicsMicrowavesOptical engineeringAstronomy, Observations and Techniqueshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014Optics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Deviceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030Microwaves, RF and Optical Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24019Observations, Astronomical.Astronomy—Observations.Lasers.Photonics.Microwaves.Optical engineering.Astronomy, Observations and Techniques.Optics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices.Microwaves, RF and Optical Engineering.520530621.3621.36Eversberg Thomasauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut792204Vollmann Klausauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910300418803321Spectroscopic Instrumentation2525722UNINA
