Descripción
The Spectro-Polarimeter for Infrared and Optical Regions (SPINOR) is a
new spectro-polarimeter that will serve as a facility instrument for the
Dunn Solar Telescope at the National Solar Observatory. This instrument
is capable of achromatic polarimetry over a very broad range of
wavelengths, from 430 to 1600 nm, allowing for the simultaneous
observation of several visible and infrared spectral regions with full
Stokes polarimetry. Another key feature of the design is its flexibility
to observe virtually any combination of spectral lines, limited only by
practical considerations (e.g., the number of detectors available, space
on the optical bench, etc.).
