“Science three” dispersion profiles isotropic constant-M/L Hernquist model Romanowsky et al. 2003 (refs for long-slit: Bender et al 1994) Romanowsky et al. 2003 (refs for long-slit: Bender et al 1994)
32
- single wavelength: poor discrimination utilises 0.1% of spectrum + undispersed H-alpha camera PN.S limitations
33
M-CDI: masked counter-dispersed imaging past narrow band surveys at D > 10 Mpc: poor returns in follow-up spectroscopy apply counter-dispersed imaging (don’t need good astrometry) but utilise all information
34
Ciardullo et al. 1998 UT2+FORS2/MXU: 28-30 Apr 2001 MCDI 1400B VPH grism 6 fields @ 1 hr each: 200 PN velocities to 5 R eff, v =15 km/s PNe in M87
