Abstract
AbstractThe main optical instruments of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) are installed separately. Guiding is realized by adjusting the normal direction of the mirror MA. In order to keep the central star imaged on the rotation center of the fiber plug plate, the link between celestial and fiber plug plate coordinate systems has to be established. Some local parameters contain errors so that the normal direction of the MA calculated beforehand may not be accurate enough. The execution error of the telescope also drives the image of the central star to deviate from the rotation center. Therefore, in the process of observations the correction has to be calculated and applied periodically. Here we present the method of calculating the guiding parameters as well as the correction parameters for the LAMOST.
