DRAGONS v3.2.0 is now available.

This release includes the long awaited support for the new GMOS-S CCDs. It also contains a fully integrated support for GHOST.

Regarding GHOST, the old DRAGONS v3.0 + GHOSTDR should NOT be used anymore. It will no longer be supported. Please use DRAGONS v3.2.

For a summary of the changes see:

With this release, DRAGONS supports:

  • GHOST spectrograph
  • GMOS longslit spectograph, including nod-and-shuffle mode
  • GMOS imager
  • NIRI imager
  • GSAOI imager
  • F2 imager

For all the data coming from the instruments and modes above, this software, DRAGONS, should be used instead of the Gemini IRAF package.

We encourage users to review and try the various tutorials that are available for each type of data.
