Abstract

Raman scattering enables unforeseen uses for the laser guide-star system of the Very Large Telescope. Here, we present the observation of one up-link sodium laser beam acquired with the ESPRESSO spectrograph at a resolution lambda/Delta lambda similar to 140 000. In 900 s on source, we detect the pure rotational Raman lines of O-16(2), N-14(2), and (NN)-N-14-N-15 (tentatively) up to rotational quantum numbers J of 27, 24, and 9, respectively. We detect the O-16(2) fine-structure lines induced by the interaction of the electronic spin S and end-over-end rotational angular momentum N in the electronic ground state of this molecule up to N = 9. The same spectrum also reveals the nu(1 <- 0) rotational-vibrational Q-branch for O-16(2) and N-14(2). These observations demonstrate the potential of using laser guide-star systems as accurate calibration sources for characterizing new astronomical spectrographs.

We thank Ronald Holzlohner for enlightening conversations, Jorge Lillo-Box and Alvaro Ribas for sharing their expertise in MCMC techniques with us, Susana Cerda and Rodrigo Romero for their operational support during part of the ESPRESSO commissioning run, and the AOF Builders [2] for the construction and installation of the AOF on UT4 at the VLT. We are very grateful to the ESO librarians for the outstanding support of our bibliographic excursions beyond the astrophysical realm. This research has made use of the following PYTHON packages: MATPLOTLIB [53], ASTROPY, a community-developed core PYTHON package for Astronomy [54,55], APLPY, an open-source plotting package for PYTHON [56], FCMAKER [57,58], a PYTHON module to create ESO-compliant finding charts for OBs on p2, ASTROQUERY [59], which provides a set of tools for querying astronomical web forms and databases [60], ASTROPLAN [61], and EMCEE [62]. This research has also made use of the ALADIN interactive sky atlas [63], of SAOIMAGE DS9 [64] developed by Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, and of NASA's Astrophysics Data System. Portions of this Letter present research carried out at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, under contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
