| Description: | The CAHA 3.5m is an equatorially mounted telescope with a f/10 Ritchey Chrétien focus, two corrected prime foci with f/3.48 and f/3.93 and an IR optimized f/45 RC focus. An f/35 Coudé focus is currently not in use.
The instrumentation includes: -. LAICA: Wide field imager with a FOV of 44' x 44'. -. OMEGA-2000: Wide field camera for the near infrared with a FOV of 15.4'. -. OMEGA-Cass: IR imager for the RC focus. -. PMAS: Integral field spectrograph with a fibre coupled lens array and a fibre-bundle. -. MOSCA: Focal reducer for the RC focus, providing imaging, long slit spectroscopy and multi-object spectroscopy -. TWIN spectrograph of intermediate spectral resolution for simultaneous spectroscopy in two wavelength ranges. |
