MEGARA Fiber Units
Abstract
This poster summarizes the status of the Preliminary Design of the MEGARA Fiber Units, as well as the prototypes that are carrying out during this phase. MEGARA has a central bundle covering 12 arcsec x 14 arcsec on sky, plus a Fiber MOS positioner, able to place up to 94 mini-bundles 7 fibers each in MOS configuration. A field lens provides a telecentric focal plane, where the bundles are located. Microlenses arrays couple the f/17 beam of the GTC to the f/3 at the entrance of the fibers. Finally, the fibers, organized in bundles, end in the pseudo-slit plate, which shall be the MEGARA spectrograph entrance plane.
