Automated quasar continuum estimation using neural networks: a comparative study of deep-learning architectures
Francesco Pistis, Michele Fumagalli, Matteo Fossati +13
Context. Ongoing and upcoming large spectroscopic surveys are drastically increasing the number of observed quasar spectra, requiring the development of fast and accurate automated…
The Detailed Science Case for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer, 2019 edition
The MSE Science Team, Carine Babusiaux, Maria Bergemann +258
(Abridged) The Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) is an end-to-end science platform for the design, execution and scientific exploitation of spectroscopic surveys. It will unvei…
Unveiling large-scale rotational motions in the intragroup medium at z~1 through gravitational-arc tomography
Cédric Ledoux, Fernanda Muñoz-Olivares, L. Felipe Barrientos +8
We present the first spatially resolved characterisation of the cool intragroup medium (IGrM) in a spectroscopically confirmed galaxy group at z=1.167. Using 30 independent sightli…
From the Intergalactic to the Interstellar Scales -- EQUALS: a High-resolution Legacy Survey of Gas in the Distant Universe Using ESPRESSO
Trystyn Berg, Valentina D'Odorico, Elisa Boera +14
Understanding how the Universe evolved from diffuse primordial gas into the rich cosmic web we observe today is one of the great challenges of modern astrophysics. Quasar absorptio…
The Science Performance of the Gemini High Resolution Optical Spectrograph
Alan W. McConnachie, Christian R. Hayes, J. Gordon Robertson +46
The Gemini High Resolution Optical Spectrograph (GHOST) is a fiber-fed spectrograph system on the Gemini South telescope that provides simultaneous wavelength coverage from 348 - 1…
