ESPaDOnS data @ CFHT

Three observing modes: Star only (R~81,000) , Star+Sky (R~68,000) and Polarimetric (R~68,000);

Each observing mode can use up to three readout modes: Fast (4.12e, 1.51e/ADU), Normal (3.8e, 1.22e/ADU), Slow (2.99e, 1.09e/ADU);

Spectral range: 370 to 1,050 nm;

ESPaDOnS data @ Gemini North (GRACES)

Two observing modes: Star only (R~67,500) and Star+Sky (R~40,000);

Each observing mode can use up to three readout modes: Fast (4.12e, 1.51e/ADU), Normal (3.8e, 1.22e/ADU), Slow (2.99e, 1.09e/ADU);

Spectral range: 400 to 1,050 nm;
