Abstract:

LAMOST is a 4-meter reflecting Schmidt telescope with 5 degree field of view and 4000 fibers. Now it is running in its commissioning phase. We will introduce the specifications, science goals, recent tests of LAMOST telescope, and in particular the 2d pipeline and a new algorithm for 2D spectral extraction.
