View source for Lesedi HR Spectrograph (name TBD)

= Lesedi HRS Project Wiki =
* This wiki is for construction of a high-resolution spectrograph on the 1-m Lesedi telescope in Sutherland.  We anticipate future wikis for the user manual and for technical support.
* The SAAO and Christian Schwab (Macquarie Univ. and AAO) are collaborating on the project.
* The instrument is based on a design that Christian modified from NEID, an innovative HRS for use on the 3.5-m WIYN (https://neid.psu.edu/). We are hoping to reach a few m/sec accuracies for radial velocity measurements on Lesedi.

== Documentation ==
* Add notes from Christian's emails here
* Rough purchasing list from Chris' visit 03/2018.  He can likely supply the prism, collimator, and fiber injection:
    $35k  bench optics
    $55k Echelle grating
    $3k fiber injection optics
    $30k collimator/ADC/refocus mechanism

== Detectors ==
* We have gone through the SAAO CCD store, and there are 5 engineering CCDs from SALTICAM and RSS that can be considered:
