Update on the Magellan InfraRed Multi-Object Spectrograph (MIRMOS)
Maren Cosens, Nicholas P. Konidaris, Gwen C. Rudie +21
The paper describes the design of MIRMOS, a new infrared multi‑object and integral‑field spectrograph for the 6.5 m Magellan telescopes, detailing its wavelength coverage, slit‑mas…
Update on the slicer IFU for the Magellan InfraRed Multi-Object Spectrograph (MIRMOS)
Maren Cosens, Patricio Schurter, Nicholas P. Konidaris +18
The paper reports an updated design for the image slicer integral field unit (IFU) of the upcoming Magellan InfraRed Multi-Object Spectrograph (MIRMOS), describing a shift from a f…
Using chromatic covariance to correct for scintillation noise in ground-based spectrophotometry
Jason E. Williams, Nicholas P. Konidaris
Atmospheric scintillation is one of the largest sources of error in ground-based spectrophotometry, reducing the precision of astrophysical signals extracted from the time-series o…
A Precision Cryogenic Positioning Stage for Detector Dithering and Flexure Compensation
Stephen A. Smee, Stephen C. Hope, Randolph P. Hammond +20
This paper presents the design and technical progress of a precision X-Y stage for detector dithering and flexure compensation. The stage is being developed for use in the Magellan…
Telescope control software and proto-model siderostat for the SDSS-V Local Volume Mapper
Hojae Ahn, Florian Briegel, Jimin Han +19
The fifth Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) Local Volume Mapper (LVM) is a wide-field integral field unit (IFU) survey that uses an array of four 160 mm fixed telescopes with sider…
