SOXS: Effects on optical performances due to gravity flexures, temperature variations, and subsystems alignment
Abstract
SOXS (Son Of X-Shooter) is the new medium resolution wide-band spectrograph to be installed at the 3.6m New Technology Telescope (NTT) in La Silla. SOXS will offer simultaneous wavelength coverage from 0.35 to 2.0 μm and will be dedicated to the study of transient and variable sources. While nominal optical performances of the system were presented in previous proceedings (arXiv:1809.01521), we here present a set of further analyses aimed to identify and quantify optical effects, due to changes in temperature and orientation of the instrument during alignment and operations.
