The tables below shows the efficiency of the grating only at orders 3, 4, 5, & 6 used with K, H, J, & Y filters, respectively. The efficiencies provided below are determined for the appropriate grating tilt used in MOSFIRE to selected the desired orders.
Order | Band | Dispersion (Å/pix) | Resolution (pix) [2] | λc (Å) [1] | R | Δλ (Å) | Δλ with slit -1.5' from center [3] | Δλ with slit +1.5' from center [3] | Slit shifts Å/mm [4] |
