摘要

We describe the preliminary design of the Dark Energy Spectrometer (DESpec), a fiber-fed spectroscopic instrumentconcept for the Blanco 4-meter telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO). DESpec would takeadvantage of the infrastructure recently deployed for the Dark Energy Camera (DECam). DESpec would be mounted inthe new DECam prime focus cage, would be interchangeable with DECam, would share the DECam optical corrector,and would feature a focal plane with ~4000 robotically positioned optical fibers feeding multiple high-throughputspectrometers. The instrument would have a field of view of 3.8 square degrees, a wavelength range of approximately500&&1000 nm, and a spectral resolution of R~3000. DESpec would provide a powerful spectroscopic follow-upsystem for sources in the Southern hemisphere discovered by the Dark Energy Survey and LSST.λ© (2012) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).
