Boller & Chivens spectrograph

 The Boller & Chivens spectrograph is a classic-design instrument that offers low and intermediate resolutions, making it ideal for spectroscopic studies. Originally designed for the f/7 Cassegrain focus of a 1.37m telescope at the Osservatorio Astronomico di Brera, this spectrograph has been adapted and optimized for exclusive use on the 2.1m Telescope at OAN-SPM. Its combination with a next-generation CCD allows for high-quality data acquisition for detailed astrophysical studies.
