摘要

The Australian Astronomical Observatory is building a 4-channel VPH-grating High Efficiency and Resolution MultiElement Spectrograph (HERMES) for the 3.9 meter Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT). HERMES will provide anominal spectral resolving power of 28,000 for Galactic Archaeology with an optional high-resolution mode of 45,000with the use of a slit mask.HERMES is fed by a fibre positioning robot called 2dF at the telescope prime focus. There are a total of 784 sciencefibres, which interface with the spectrograph via two separate slit body assemblies, each comprising of 392 sciencefibers. The slit defines the spectral lines of 392 fibres on the detector. The width of the detector determines the spectralbandwidth and the detector height determines the fibre to fibre spacing or cross talk. Tolerances that follow from this areall in the 10 micrometer range.The slit relay optics must contribute negligibly to the overall image quality budget and uniformly illuminate thespectrograph exit pupil. The latter requirement effectively requires that the relay optics provide a telecentric input at thecollimator entrance slit. As a result it is critical to align the optical components to extreme precision required by theoptical design.This paper discusses the engineering challenges of designing, optimising, tolerancing and manufacturing of very precisemechanical components for housing optics and the design of low cost of jigs and fixtures for alignment and assembly ofthe optics.© (2012) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).
