The Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) Survey Design, Reductions, and Detections
Karl Gebhardt, Erin Mentuch Cooper, Robin Ciardullo +60
We describe the survey design, calibration, commissioning, and emission-line detection algorithms for the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX). The goal of HETDEX…
The Data Processing Pipeline for the MUSE Instrument
Peter M. Weilbacher, Ralf Palsa, Ole Streicher +12
Processing of raw data from modern astronomical instruments is nowadays often carried out using dedicated software, so-called "pipelines" which are largely run in automated operati…
BlueMUSE: Project Overview and Science Cases
Johan Richard, Roland Bacon, Jérémy Blaizot +59
We present the concept of BlueMUSE, a blue-optimised, medium spectral resolution, panoramic integral field spectrograph based on the MUSE concept and proposed for the Very Large Te…
Multi-Object Spectroscopy with MUSE
Andreas Kelz, Sebastian Kamann, Tanya Urrutia +3
Since 2014, MUSE, the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer, is in operation at the ESO-VLT. It combines a superb spatial sampling with a large wavelength coverage. By design, MUSE is…
The MUSE Data Reduction Pipeline: Status after Preliminary Acceptance Europe
Peter M. Weilbacher, Ole Streicher, Tanya Urrutia +3
MUSE, a giant integral field spectrograph, is about to become the newest facility instrument at the VLT. It will see first light in February 2014. Here, we summarize the properties…
Low-Energy Astrophysics: Stimulating the Reduction of Energy Consumption in the Next Decade
P. J. Marshall, N. Bennert, E. S. Rykoff +27
In this paper we address the consumption of energy by astronomers while performing their professional duties. Although we find that astronomy uses a negligible fraction of the US e…
