Calibrations
You are here
Wavelength calibration of GRACES is obtained using GCAL, the facility calibration unit. Flat-fielding is done with GCAL. Baseline calibrations will be obtained for all observations, both queue and classical. Note that GRACES calibrations are obtained during the day. There is no gain and it takes too much time to obtain them during nighttime.
