CUBES: optical design and analysis of the VLT's high-resolution UV spectrograph past final design review

Lawrence Bissell, Walter Seifert, Ariadna Calcines Rosario +7

CUBES (Cassegrain U-Band Efficient Spectrograph) will be the most efficient UV spectrograph on an 8-10m class telescope, exploiting the ESO VLT's higher telescope efficiency relati…

CUBES, the Cassegrain U-Band Efficient Spectrograph: towards final design review

Matteo Genoni, Hans Dekker, Stefano Covino +39

In the era of Extremely Large Telescopes, the current generation of 8-10m facilities are likely to remain competitive at ground-UV wavelengths for the foreseeable future. The Casse…
