MEGARA (spectrograph)

MEGARA (acronym in Spanish for Multi-Espectrógrafo en GTC de Alta Resolución para Astronomía) is a scientific instrument installed at the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC), designed to perform medium- to high-resolution spectroscopy in the visible spectral range. It was developed by a consortium led by the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM) in collaboration with the National Institute of Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics (INAOE) of Mexico, the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia (IAA-CSIC) and the Technical University of Madrid (UPM), among other technological partners.
