Obtaining a star spectrum is nowadays very accessible with modest equipment – ​​provided you put a little method into it, and advance step by step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is presented as a guide and is intended to be very practical. He puts a lot of emphasis on common sense. It covers all the aspects necessary to help you achieve rapid, quality observations with a slit spectroscope. We talk (necessarily) about astrophysics and optics, but it is neither an astrophysics course nor an optics course and no prerequisites are necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA large part of the book is devoted to preparing the instrument and observing in the field because it is often at this stage that novice observers encounter the most difficulty with setting up several pieces of equipment ( telescope, spectroscope, camera, etc.).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLittle by little, you will learn to obtain your first spectra, to reduce the data, then to look at them with more and more demands, to finally realize that you are making physical measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGetting into amateur astronomical spectroscopy\u003cbr\u003e2.
