Abstract

The AMASE-P project presents a bold exploration into the potential utilization of state-of-the-art commercial photographic lenses and CMOS detectors as integral components in spectrograph designs, thereby offering a cost-effective solution for astronomy instrumentation. In this contribution, we present the current optical design of the telescope and spectrograph system, and present the expected performance of the design, including the point spread function, spectral resolution, throughput, and signal-to-noise ratios. We also present the design of a telecentric corrector for the Canon 400mm f/2.8 III telephoto lens, which is necessary for coupling it to optical fibers.
