F28X50OII - CCD
Description
The F28X50OII mode is useful for narrow-band imaging of OII 3727 Å. The narrow bandpass may offer some advantages over the ACS WFC with the [O II] ramp filter. The field of view is 28" x 50".
Recommended Uses
This filter is recommended for deep high-resolution O II imaging.
Special Considerations
Flat field images taken through this filter show scattered light at the top and bottom of the frame. This is not expected to be a problem for astronomical targets.
