Chromatic Drift of the Espresso Fabry-Pérot Etalon
Tobias M. Schmidt, Bruno Chazelas, Christophe Lovis +5
In the last decade, white-light illuminated Fabry-Pérot interferometers wave been established as a widely used, relatively simple, reliable, and cost-effective way to precisely cal…
Fundamental physics with Espresso: Towards an accurate wavelength calibration for a precision test of the fine-structure constant
Tobias M. Schmidt, Paolo Molaro, Michael T. Murphy +56
Observations of metal absorption systems in the spectra of distant quasars allow to constrain a possible variation of the fine-structure constant throughout the history of the Univ…
ESPRESSO@VLT -- On-sky performance and first results
F. Pepe, S. Cristiani, R. Rebolo +97
ESPRESSO is the new high-resolution spectrograph of ESO's Very-Large Telescope (VLT). It was designed for ultra-high radial-velocity precision and extreme spectral fidelity with th…
A Flexible and Modular Data Reduction Library for Fiber-fed Echelle Spectrographs
Danuta Sosnowska, Christophe Lovis, Pedro Figueira +4
Within the ESPRESSO project a new flexible data reduction library is being built. ESPRESSO, the Echelle SPectrograph for Rocky Exoplanets and Stable Spectral Observations is a fibe…
ESPRESSO: The next European exoplanet hunter
F. Pepe, P. Molaro, S. Cristiani +55
The acronym ESPRESSO stems for Echelle SPectrograph for Rocky Exoplanets and Stable Spectroscopic Observations; this instrument will be the next VLT high resolution spectrograph. T…
