Abstract

The spectrograph which has been calibrated is a Pearson modification of the Eagle mounting. It was originally built for industry but was never set up in a working condition nor was the dispersion of its grating ever calibrated. The ultimate purpose of this thesis was to fulfill the requirements, and to set up the conditions so that the spectrograph could be used for quantitative purposes. This included the measurement of the dispersion of lines performed by the grating, and the recognition of lines of the iron spectrum in order that a quantitative constant could be made.
