Some presentations on Spectroscopy given at
meetings of the British Astronomical Association (pdf files)
Presentation given at the joint BAA-AAVSO meeting July 2018
Pushing the limits using commercial spectrographs
(Spectrophotometry with a Star Analyser, Supernovae with a modified ALPY, high precision radial velocity with a LHIRES III)
Presentations given at the BAA Spectroscopy Workshop, Norman Lockyer Observatory October 2015
How we do Spectroscopy - Preparation, Acquisition and Data Reduction A general overview of producing spectra for astronomical research
Low Resolution Slitless Spectroscopy (Star Analyser)- Observing a fast transient of a T Tauri star. Producing spectra using a Star Analyer grating
Low Resolution Slit spectroscopy (ALPY) - Confirming and classifying a Supernova Producing spectra using an ALPY low resolution slit spectrograph
High resolution slit spectroscopy (LHIRES III) - Radial Velocity measurements of Deneb Producing spectra using a LHIRES high resolution slit spectrograph
The full set of presentations given at this workshop are available from the BAA website here
Presentation given at the BAA VSS Workshop Edinburgh October 2008
Introduction to spectroscopy of Variable Stars
Mainly of historic interest from when I first started encouraging BAA members to explore the potential for making scientifically useful spectroscopic observations. It covers examples using the Star Analyser and the LHIRES III
