Instrument Summary -- Why Use the GHRS? Here we provide a brief overview of the basic properties of the GHRS. ... The GHRS can obtain spectra from about 1150 to 3200 . ... The repeatability of fluxes is even better, being better than 1%; i.e., it is possible to compare measures of the same wavelength in the same star at different times to within 1% for observations with the LSA. ... The source to be observed may be placed in a Large Science Aperture (LSA) or a Small Science Aperture (SSA). ...

Rectangular Format Cameras Princeton Instruments rectangular format cameras are ideal for many specialized imaging applications, including full color imaging, one dimensional imaging, or any application requiring high resolution along only one dimension. ... Multispectral and Color Imaging To capture images at multiple wavelengths simultaneously, one can either use multiple cameras, a single camera with multiple CCD arrays, or a single camera with a rectangular array. ...

... The calibration of astrophysical spectra in wavelength based on calibration lamp data suffers from different kinds of uncertainties. Besides inaccuracies in the observational phase, common data reduction practice adds ``pixelation'' errors, due to the fact that the centering method does not use the correct PSF. These model mismatch errors depend, for a given feature, on the sub-pixel location of the line center (David & Verschueren, private communication). ...
