MOSAIC Filters
The Mosaic II imager, used at the Blanco 4-m prime focus, takes filters that are 146x146 mm and 12 mm (nominal) thick. A set of standardized filter names and IDs for both Mosaic I on the KPNO Mayall and Mosaic II on the CTIO Blanco have been developed to ensure proper application of astrometric solutions and real-time display processing (as well as future archive uniformity). These official names are listed in the Mosaic filter list web page.
Focus offsets are referred to the R filter, since this is the filter we use for taking focus frames each night when the Mosaic is installed in order to monitor telescope performance.
Note that the Sloan set (griz) and the Johnson-Cousins BVR (but not I) sets should be near-identical to those at KPNO.
Note: The central wavelength of narrow band filters (actually all filters, but it is very significant for narrow band filters) is shifted approx. 15A to the BLUE in the f/2.87 beam of the Blanco 4m + PFADC corrector as compared to the transmission measured in parallel light. The central wavelengths quoated below are nominally for when the filters used at PF, with the approx. 15A shift included. Furthermore, the filter transmission curves presented below show the simulated filter transmission curve for the Blanco 4m + PFADC f/2.87 beam.
Note: The Blanco prime focus corrector has poor response in the UV: 90% (4000A), 85% (3800A), 74% (3650A), 54% (3500A), 31% (3400A), 11% (3350A), 0% (3300A). These are calculations from the glass types and AR coating specifications, and the figures for 3300-3400A are rather uncertain. YOU STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO USE THE u(SDSS) filter rather than the U filter. Neither of these filters, in combination with the CCDs and optical corrector, match the standard passbands perfectly. The U filter uses a (troublesome!) copper sulphate solution as red blocker, whereas the SDSS u filter is an interference filter.
