prism spectroscopy

Burles, Bolton, Masjedi, and I worked on calibration and understanding of the low-resolution prisim spectroscopy we have of very faint galaxies as part of the PRIMUS project. The spectra are so low in resolution that both the point-spread function in the spectral direction and the sensitivity variation across pixels matter for the extraction of spectra and determination of redshifts.
