Abstract

We present an extensive spectroscopic investigation on evolved old- and intermediate-age stellar tracers of the Carina dSph galaxy. We discuss the approach we devised to calibrate the two multi-object spectrographs (FLAMES, FORS2) available at the European Southern Observatory. Pros and cons of the two instruments are also mentioned. Finally, we present preliminary results concerning the radial velocity measurements and the comparison with data from the literature. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
