Development of 3D spectral methods on the 6-meter telescope prompted the necessity of creating specialized software for data reduction, adapted to personal computers IBM AT/386/486 class. We had to concentrate our efforts on preparing the software for bidimensional spectral data produced by Multi-Pupil Integral Field Spectrograph of the 6-meter telescope (MPFS) and analog of panoramic spectrophotometer with spectral channeling, using scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer (PYTHEAS-6).MPFS - analog of spectrograph TIGER (Courtes et al., 1988), developed for the 6-meter telescope, provides bidimensional spectroscopy of extended sources, allowing the simultaneous detection of 99 individual spectra, produced by a lens raster from 9 by 11 microlenses. The main features of this instrument are described in (Afanasiev et al, 1994).

AbstractUntil now, just a few extrasolar planets (30 out of 860) have been found through the direct imaging method. This number should greatly improve when the next generation of High Contrast Instruments like Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) at Gemini South Telescope or SPHERE at VLT will became operative at the end of this year. In particular, the Integral Field Spectrograph (IFS), one of the SPHERE subsystems, should allow a first characterization of the spectral type of the found extrasolar planets. Here we present the results of the last performance tests that we have done on the IFS instrument at the Institut de Planetologie et d'Astrophysique de Grenoble (IPAG) in condition as similar as possible to the ones that we will find at the telescope. We have found that we should be able to reach contrast down to 5 × 10−7 and make astrometry at sub-mas level with the instrument in the actual conditions. A number of critical issues have been identified. The resolution of these problems could allow to further improve the performance of the instrument.
