ESO data reduction pipeline for the FORS1/2 instruments

FORS pipeline recipes for the reduction of data obtained with the FORS1 and FORS2 instruments in the LSS, MOS, MXU, PMOS, and direct imaging instrument modes.

FORS is the visual and near UV FOcal Reducer and low dispersion Spectrograph for the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of the European Southern Observatory (ESO). Two versions of FORS have been built, upgraded and moved to the Cassegrain foci of different telescopes in the past years. In April 2009, FORS1 was dismounted to make room for X-shooter, so only FORS2 is in operation. FORS is designed as an all-dioptric instrument for the wavelength range from 330 nm to 1100 nm and provides an image scale of 0".25/pixel (or 0".125/pixel with the high resolution collimator) in the standard readout mode (2x2 binning). FORS2 is installed on UT1 (Antu) and is by default equipped with a detector system that is optimised for the red with a very low level of fringes thanks to a mosaic of two 2k x 4k MIT CCDs (with 15 μm pixels). However, the blue-optimised detector system that was previously available on FORS1 has been commissioned on FORS2 and can be requested for Visitor Mode observation. The geometries of both detector systems are similar, with the optical axis falling ~30" above the gap and offsets of a few arc-seconds between the two chips. FORS2 has many modes, including multi-object spectroscopy with exchangeable masks, long-slit spectroscopy, imaging and spectro-polarimetry and high-time resolution imaging and spectroscopy.
