Abstract:The Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) project will provide multi-object spectroscopy in the optical and near-infrared bands using an 11.25-m aperture telescope, repurposing the original Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope site. MSE will observe 4332 objects per single exposure with a field of view of 1.5 square degrees, utilizing two spectrographs with low-moderate (R ∼ 3000, 6000) and high (R ≈ 30;000) spectral resolution. In general, an exposure time calculator (ETC) is used to estimate the performance of an … Show more
