LISA Spectrograph - Visible with Slit

The Shelyak LISA is a low-resolution, high-luminosity slit spectrograph optimized for faint celestial objects including variable stars, comets, novae, supernovae, and galaxies in the visible spectrum (400-700 nm). Featuring an f/5 aperture with resolving power of approximately R~600-1000, the LISA combines exceptional light-gathering capability with user-friendly operation through interchangeable slits that allow observers to balance spectral resolution with brightness. This precision instrument is specifically designed for direct attachment to prime focus, includes a mirror slit for accurate target positioning, and supports optional autoguiding via a separate guidance camera for extended exposures of faint astronomical objects.
