Filters for SAM-FP
Here is the list of filters available to use with one of the two Fabry-Perots. The filters have to be specified in the Instrument Setup Form ideally one week before the observing run since they may be in use in another instrument or even telescope.
| BTFI 5021/17 | 3” x 3” | 5020.9 | 16.5 Å |
| BTFI 6569 / 20 | 3” x 3” | 6569.2 Å | 18.6 Å |
| BTFI 6579 / 20 | 3” x 3” | 6578.8 Å | 19.9 Å |
| BTFI 6600 / 20 | 3” x 3” | 6600.5 Å | 19.3 Å |
| BTFI 6745 / 38 | 3” x 3” | 6745 Å | 38.5 Å |
| SAMI Hα Broad | 3” x 3” | 6563 Å | 75 Å |
| SAMI [SII] Broad | 3” x 3” | 6724 Å | 75 Å |
| SAMI [SII] Narrow | 3” x 3” | 6738 Å | 27 Å |
| SAMI [NI] Medium | 3” x 3” | 5189 Å | 55 Å |
| SAMI [NII] Narrow | 3” x 3” | 6583 Å | 18 Å |
We have also filters from LAM (Laboratoire d'Astrophisique du Marseille, France) and we may add information about these filters very soon.
The astronomer can also request any other filter listed in the Filters Available at SOAR page. CTIO filters are also available. The main constrain is that the filters may be 3 x 3 inches squared or round with 3 inches diameter.
