CUBES: a UV spectrograph for the future (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
In spite of the advent of extremely large telescopes in the UV/optical/NIR range, the current generation of 8-10m facilities is likely to remain competitive at ground-UV wavelengths for the foreseeable future. The Cassegrain U-Band Efficient Spectrog... Read More about CUBES: a UV spectrograph for the future.
