Characterisation and assessment of the SOXS Spectrograph UV-VIS detector system

R. Cosentino, Marcos Hernandez Díaz, Hector Pérez Ventura, S. Campana et autres

The SOXS spectrograph, designed for the ESO NTT telescope, operates in both the optical (UV-VIS: 350-850 nm) and NIR (800-2000 nm) bands. This article provides an overview of the final tests conducted on the UV-VIS camera system using a telescope simulator. It …

SOXS NIR: optomechanical integration and alignment, optical performance verification before full instrument assembly

Matteo Genoni, Matteo Aliverti, Giorgio Pariani, Luca Oggioni et autres

This paper presents the opto-mechanical integration and alignment, functional and optical performance verification of the NIR arm of Son Of X-Shooter (SOXS) instrument. SOXS will be a single object spectroscopic facility for the ESO-NTT 3.6-m telescope, made by two arms high efficiency …

SOXS System engineering from design to installation: challenges and results

R. Claudi, Kalyan Radhakrishnan, Federico Battaini, Simone Di Filippo et autres

SOXS (SOn of X-Shooter) is a high-efficiency spectrograph with a mean Resolution-Slit product of about 3500 over the entire band capable of simultaneously observing the complete spectral range 350-2000 nm. It consists of three scientific arms (the UV-VIS Spectrograph, the NIR Spectrograph, …
