Hello everyone, I'm Sauro Gaudenzi, I'm also a city scientist who collaborates with several projects of the zooniverse.org platform and exactly with Disk Detective, Planet Hunters Tess, Supernova Hunters, and others but in a minor way, now my question is this: I place a Skywatcher Evostar 72/420 apochromatic telescope, a Skywatcher Star Adventurer 2i wifi astrotracker, a canon eos 1100d modified fullspectrum and an unmodified one, a zwo asi 224mc, a teleguide, perhaps adding a filter for spectrography (type Star Analyser SA-100 or other type of filter), with this configuration it is possible to calculate or observe the spectrometry of a YSO? Thank you very much for your cooperation
It depends exactly what you are trying to measure but it is possible to study transients of YSO at low resolution with a Star Analyser. I talked about this at the 2018 BAA/AAVSO conference. You can see the video here where there is an example of a transient in a T Tauri star

BAA member Andrew Smith has also been doing some similar work using a Star Analyser based system on flare stars eg

A cooled mono astro camera would be much better for this kind of work than your colour cameras though

Here is the equipment I used
