Spectrophotometry for xanthochromia [PDF]
To the Editor: Xanthochromia, or a yellow appearance of the cerebrospinal fluid, is often used to confirm suspected subarachnoid hemorrhage.1,2 It is associated with the presence of bilirubin, a blood product that arises only in vivo by the enzymatic transformation of hemoglobin.

Precision Spectrophotometry at the Level of 0.1% [PDF]
Accurate relative spectrophotometry is critical for many science applications. Small wavelength scale residuals in the flux calibration can significantly impact the measurements of weak emission and absorption features in the spectra. Using Sloan Digital Sky Survey data, we demonstrate that the average spectra of carefully selected red-sequence ...

An Analysis of the Shapes of Interstellar Extinction Curves. VII. Milky Way Spectrophotometric Optical-through-Ultraviolet Extinction and Its R-Dependence [PDF]
We produce a set of 72 NIR through UV extinction curves by combining new HST/STIS optical spectrophotometry with existing IUE spectrophotometry (yielding gapless coverage from 1150 to 10000 Angstroms) and NIR photometry. These curves are used to determine a new, internally consistent, NIR through UV Milky Way Mean Curve and to characterize how the ...

Determination of Hexavalent Chromium (Cr(VI)) Concentrations via Ion Chromatography and UV-Vis Spectrophotometry in Samples Collected from Nacogdoches Wastewater Treatment Plant, East Texas (USA) [PDF]
The concentration of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)), a toxic environmental pollutant and carcinogen, was determined in samples collected from Nacogdoches Wastewater Treatment Plant (NWWTP) using ion chromatography and UV-visible spectrophotometry (IC, UV ...

3D Spectrophotometry of Planetary Nebulae in the Bulge of M31 [PDF]
We introduce crowded field integral field (3D) spectrophotometry as a useful technique for the study of resolved stellar populations in nearby galaxies. As a methodological test, we present a pilot study with selected extragalactic planetary nebulae (XPN) in the bulge of M31, demonstrating how 3D spectroscopy is able to improve the limited accuracy of ...

NICMOS Spectrophotometry and Models for A-Stars [PDF]
Absolute flux distributions for eight stars are well measured from 0.8-2.5mu m with NICMOS grism spectrophotometry at a resolution of R~100 and an accuracy of 1-2%. These SEDs are fit with Castelli & Kurucz model atmospheres; and the results are compared with the Cohen-Walker-Witteborn (CWW) template models for the same stars. In some cases, the T_{eff}

Innovative technique for analysis of wastewater contaminants using hyperspectral imaging
Accurate, fast, quantitative on-site analysis of wastewater is an environmental necessity. Therefore, we report a quantitative spectroscopic study in order to analyse organic contaminants in wastewater. For this purpose, two spectroscopy-based techniques
