Stellar elemental abundance determination using a Fabry-Pérot Interferometer

The Fabry-Pérot interferometer (FPI) was investigated as a potential tool for determining stellar elemental abundances. The FPI is a tunable narrow-band filter that makes it possible to obtain hundreds of stellar spectra simultaneously without the overhead associated with other multi-object spectros...
