An optimised tiling pattern for multi-object spectroscopic surveys: application to the 4MOST survey
E. Tempel, T. Tuvikene, M. M. Muru +22
Large multi-object spectroscopic surveys require automated algorithms to optimise their observing strategy. One of the most ambitious upcoming spectroscopic surveys is the 4MOST su…
Probabilistic fibre-to-target assignment algorithm for multi-object spectroscopic surveys
E. Tempel, P. Norberg, T. Tuvikene +22
Context. Several new multi-object spectrographs are currently planned or under construction that are capable of observing thousands of Galactic and extragalactic objects simultaneo…
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…
4MOST Survey Strategy Plan
G. Guiglion, C. Battistini, C. P. M. Bell +30
The current status of and motivation for the 4MOST Survey Strategy, as developed by the Consortium science team, are presented here. Key elements of the strategy are described, suc…
4MOST Scientific Operations
C. J. Walcher, M. Banerji, C. Battistini +65
The 4MOST instrument is a multi-object spectrograph that will address Galactic and extragalactic science cases simultaneously by observing targets from a large number of different…
4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals
R. S. de Jong, O. Agertz, A. Agudo Berbel +335
We introduce the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), a new high-multiplex, wide-field spectroscopic survey facility under development for the four-metre-class Vis…
