Abstract:

LDSS-2 is a low dispersion survey spectrograph for the William Herschel Telescope. It was constructed to meet an increasing demand for large scale statistical surveys of stellar and galactic populations. This thesis describes its design, construction and installation, together with additional research concerning the fabrication of multi-slit aperture masks.LDSS-2 has a similar optical system to its predecessor LDSS-1, but it can hold greater numbers of aperture masks, filters and grisms, and its control system is fully automated. This is expected to improve its observing efficiency and allow L

A full account is given of the relatively new astronomical technique of multi- object spectroscopy with optical fibre lightguides. The thesis begins with a survey of the number densities of a wide range of astronomi- cal object classes, and, after comparing the merits of the various techniques for multi- object spectroscopy, shows (by defining the "effective aperture" of a multiple fibre - coupled telescope) that the multi -fibre tech- nique is very well- suited to the real distribution of celestial objects.

Abstract:

This thesis describes instrumental techniques pursued to optimise the quality of the spectroscopic data which will be obtained via the new generation of multifibre systems. The technical aspects discussed include the instrumental sources of systematic errors on sky subtraction and new methods to evaluate the fibre performance in terms of throughput and preservation of the input focal ratio. The limiting factor in faint multifibre spectroscopy is the accuracy and reliability of sky subtraction. Instrumentality the precision to which sky subtraction can be done is limited by systematic errors. T

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate new instrument technology to enhance the capabilities of 8-m telescopes. This thesis first describes the theory, design, construction, and testing of an immersed grating. Immersed gratings can be used to provide R≥ 10(^4) with a multi-object and/or integral field spectrograph on an 8-m telescope. Immersed gratings allow high resolution to be achieved whilst maintaining the required pupil size at a level similar to that on 4-m telescopes.

A technique for acquiring spectral line data using a multi-aperture telescope is described. The multi-aperture principle and the criteria which led to the selection of a dispersive spectrometer are discussed. The problem of linking telescope and spectrometer has been solved by incorporating low loss optical fibres and this is also discussed. The problems of automatic data collection, its manipulation, display and storage presented a major research effort which were largely overcome by the use of cheap, digital micro-computers.

Fourier transform spectroscopy (FTS) is one of the premier ways to collect source information through emitted radiation. It is so named because the principal measurement technique involves the analysis of spectra determined from the Fourier transform of a time-domain interference pattern. Given options in the field, many space- and ground-based instruments have selected Fourier transform spectrometers for their measurements. The Herschel Space Observatory, launched on May 14, 2009, has three on-board instruments. One, SPIRE, comprises a FTS paired with bolometer detector arrays. SCUBA-2

Abstract:

The magnetic rotator model has long been the favored explanation for coherent photometric modulations in the DQ Herculis class of cataclysmic variables. However, to date, all evidence supporting this model has been of the indirect variety. Unlike their synchronously rotating cousins, the AM Herculis objects, DQ Herculis stars have not yet been discovered to emit polarized radiation. Therefore, in light of this crucial lack, the evidence used to place these objects in the magnetic cataclysmic variable category has been strictly circumstantial, based primarily on the coherence of the photometric

Of the known planets, approximately 20% are found to orbit within 0.1 AU of the star, whilst the transit of HD209458 has inferred the gas-giant nature of these close-in extrasolar giant planets (CEGPs).

Abstract:

The interstellar medium (ISM), made up of ionised, neutral and molecular gas, and interstellar dust, is a fundamental ingredient of galaxy evolution. It is the “primary repository” of galaxies, where star formation (SF) takes place, depositing energy, momentum and chemical enriched material via stellar evolution events (e.g. stellar winds, supernova explosions). ISM properties can be largely influenced also by Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) activity, that through outflows and jets is capable of heating, compressing and/or removing the gas (feedback). SF and AGN activities are part of the so-call

Abstract:

It is known that massive black holes have a profound effect on the evolution of galaxies, and possibly on their formation by regulating the amount of gas available for the star formation. However, how black hole and galaxies communicate is still an open problem, depending on how much of the energy released interacts with the circumnuclear matter. In the last years, most studies of feedback have primarily focused on AGN jet/cavity systems in the most massive galaxy clusters. This thesis intends to investigate the feedback phenomena in radio--loud AGNs from a different perspective studying

Full text

Abstract:

This Thesis is devoted to the study of the optical companions of Millisecond Pulsars in Galactic Globular Clusters (GCs) as a part of a large project started at the Department of Astronomy of the Bologna University, in collaboration with other institutions (Astronomical Observatory of Cagliari and Bologna, University of Virginia), specifically dedicated to the study of the environmental effects on passive stellar evolution in galactic GCs. Globular Clusters are very efficient “Kilns” for generating exotic object, such as Millisecond Pulsars (MSP), low mass X-ray binaries(LMXB) or Blue S
