The Rome Historical Cauchoix Telescope Recovered
In S. J. Gionti & S. J. Kikwaya Eluo (eds.), The Vatican Observatory, Castel Gandolfo: 80th Anniversary Celebration. Springer Verlag. pp. 185-196 (2018)
Abstract
The achromatic refractor Cauchoix was acquired by the Astronomical Observatory of Collegio Romano in the year 1825. In the second half of the Nineteenth Century, Angelo Secchi used this 16 cm aperture telescope, coupled with the objective prism, to perform the observations on which his pioneering spectral classification of stars was based.My notes
