Abstract

A compact fiber-linked echelle-spectrograph has been designed and constructed at the Landessternwarte Heidelberg-Königstuhl and was successfully tested during its first observation period in the end of May 1987. The optical design of the instrument is discussed in general terms and preliminary results of the first observations are presented. The reduction of several CCD frames has shown that the real properties of the spectrograph are within a few percent of the calculated ones.
