XMM-Newton, a European Space Agency observatory, has been observing the X-ray, ultra-violet and optical sky for 23 years. During this time, astronomy has evolved from mainly studyi…
Decontaminating Swift UVOT Grism Observations of Transient Sources
Michael T. Smitka, Peter J. Brown, Paul Kuin +1
We present a new technique of decontaminating Swift UVOT grism spectra for transient objects. We describe the template image requirements and image processing steps necessary to su…
The Swift UVOT grism calibration and example spectra
Paul Kuin, Alice Breeveld, Mat Page
The calibration of the two UVOT grisms which provide slitless spectroscopy in the 170-500 nm (UV grism) and 295-660 nm (visible grism) ranges has been completed. The UV grism has a…
