[N i] 10400/10410 Å Lines as Possible Disk Wind Tracers in a Young Intermediate-mass Star

The Astrophysical Journal
In this study, we performed high-resolution near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy ( R = 28,000; λ = 0.90–1.35 μ m) with a high signal-to-noise ratio on HD 200775, a very young (∼0.1 Myr old) and massive intermediate-mass star (a binary star with a mass of ...

Ultrafast imaging Raman spectroscopy of large-area samples without stepwise scanning [PDF]

Journal of Sensors and Sensor Systems, 2016
Step-by-step, time-consuming scanning of the sample is still the state-of-the-art in imaging Raman spectroscopy. Even for a few 100 image points the measurement time may add up to minutes or hours.

RVSNUpy: A Python Package for Spectroscopic Redshift Measurement Based on Cross Correlation

The Astronomical Journal
We introduce RVSNUpy , a new Python package designed to measure spectroscopic redshifts. Based on inverse-variance-weighted cross correlation, RVSNUpy determines redshifts by comparing observed spectra with various rest-frame template spectra.

Comb-calibrated solar spectroscopy through a multiplexed single-mode fiber channel

New Journal of Physics, 2015
We investigate a new scheme for astronomical spectrograph calibration using the laser frequency comb at the Solar Vacuum Tower Telescope on Tenerife. Our concept is based upon a single-mode fiber channel, that simultaneously feeds the spectrograph with ...

The SPHEREx Sky Simulator: Science Data Modeling for the First All-sky Near-infrared Spectral Survey

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We describe the SPHEREx Sky Simulator (henceforth the Simulator), a software tool designed to model science data for NASA’s SPHEREx mission that will carry out a series of all-sky spectrophotometric surveys at ∼6″ spatial resolution in 102 spectral ...
