|
the capability of taking short exposures (from milli-seconds to
seconds) with essentially no dead-time between exposures
|
|
multi-channels (3 or more) covering a wide wavelength range
(u' to z') in order to distinguish a blackbody spectrum from a stellar
spectrum
|
|
simultaneous measurement of the different wavelength bands to
avoid problems of stochastic variations
|
|
imaging capability in order to simultaneously measure target,
comparison stars and sky background and to avoid the need for fixed
apertures
|
|
high efficiency and the capability of being mounted on
large-aperture telescopes
