2015 01 19 Spectrometer Observation

• LN SB JC SH

• Started at 5pm.
• Achieved initial alignment with spectrometer to Capella as it was pretty bright - although multi-star system unsuitable for intended spectra

• Aligned first to aperture with piece of paper
• Aligned to fibre coupler hole
• Placed fibre and maximised signal with speed=1x
• observed only one maxima - relatively in focus
• clouded over but used monitor and cadmium lamp to align spectrometer camera and fibre bundle to allow horizontal projection in data analysis.
• waiting for clouds to clear from 6:30pm.
