A composite of several HIRES ThAr images covering most of the range of
HIRES has been constructed, and many of the brightest lines in the spectrum
have been labeled. This is to aid in identifying wavelengths from ThAr
spectra at the telescope, and more quickly get set up to your desired
coverage.
Some caveats:
- The image is large and will take a little while to download.
It overfills most screens so that you can scroll around on the image
in order to best match your particular wavelength settings.
- Line wavelengths show in the status bar at the bottom of your browser.
Wavelengths are only given to 1 Å, and some lines visible on the
image are not identified at all. There is even a line or two missing,
somehow cut out during the image compositing process.
- (x,y) positions on the image do not correspond to positions
on the detector. In fact the compositing technique has left discontinuities
in the wavelength vs. image (x,y) map.
