Intro to Spectroscopy 2026 Workshop

Intro to Spectroscopy 2026 Workshop

Discover the secrets of the stars!

In this seminar we will cover introductory and historically significant astronomical & spectroscopy topics. We will not only learn the basics of spectroscopy, we will also use the Boyce Astro BARO telescope to obtain spectra. Then we will analyze the spectra using RSpec Software. We will plot our spectra and analysis results in a Hertzsprung Russell diagram (HRD) in python and possibly publish as a poster or scientific paper at the end of the course.

The course will start April 27, 2026
