Femtosecond laser frequency comb for precision astrophysical spectroscopy

Femtosecond laser frequency comb for precision astrophysical spectroscopy

High-resolution spectroscopy is a crucial tool for cosmology and the search for extrasolar planets. We present a laser comb with up to 40-GHz line spacing for use as a new spectrographic calibration source.
