Descripción
NEFER (Nuevo Espectrómetro Fabry-Perot de Extrema
Resolución) is a high spectral resolution, scanning Fabry-Perot
Spectrometer. It will be installed in the OSIRIS instrument at the GTC
10 m telescope. This 3D instrument uses a high order scanning
Fabry-Perot to obtain highly accurate kinematical information of
extended cosmic sources such as galaxies or nebulae. Astronomical data
obtained with this instrument lead to a 3D spectroscopic data cubes
composed of several images, each one at different gaps of the scanning
Fabry-Perot Interferometer. In this work we present laboratory testing
of some characteristics of the ICOS Fabry-Perot acquired for this
instrument such Finesse, free spectral range, and peak transmission. We
also present software design and development for the 3D data reduction
standalone package of this high resolution 3D instrument.
