Mayall 4-meter Telescope | Mosaic | z SDSS k1020 *** Retired! | z SDSS k1020 *** Retired! | NOTE: This filter was damaged in June 2011 and is retired. The CTIO SDSS z' filter (c6020) can be requested as a replacement, but it's availability will depend on demand at CTIO. Note that there is a shift in central wavelength when placed in different f/ratio beams. At the KPNO 4meter f/3.1 beam this corresponds to a shift of approximately 12 Angstroms bluer; at the CTIO 4meter f/2.9 this corresponds to a shift of approximately 15 Angstroms bluer; at the WIYN 0.9m f/7.9 this corresponds to a shift of approximately 5 Angstroms bluer. |

Mayall 4-meter Telescope | Mosaic | z SDSS c6020 | z SDSS c6020 | Note: The central wavelength of CTIO Mosaic narrow band filters (actually all filters, but is very significant for narrow band filters) is shifted ~15A to the BLUE in the f/2.87 beam of the Blanco 4m + PFADC corrector as compared to the transmission measured in parallel light. The central wavelength quoted below is nominally for when the filter is used at PF, with the ~15A shift included. Furthermore, the filter transmission curve presented below shows the simulated filter transmission curve for the Blanco 4m + PFADC f/2.87 beam. |
