Abstract

The development of a corrector for low-frequency variations in the star image at the input of ESPriF—the echelle spectropolarimeter of the BTA primary focus—is reported. New technical solutions have made it possible to extend the operating frequency range to 10 Hz for stars brighter than \(13^{\mathrm{m}}\).
