Rs Steidel k1043 1048.78 6975.13 Nicholas U. Mayall 4-meter Telescope Mosaic Rs Steidel k1043 Rs Steidel k1043 Note that there is a shift in central wavelength when placed in different f/ratio beams. At the KPNO 4meter f/3.1 beam this corresponds to a shift of approximately 12 Angstroms bluer; at the CTIO 4meter f/2.9 this corresponds to a shift of approximately 15 Angstroms bluer; at the WIYN 0.9m f/7.9 this corresponds to a shift of approximately 5 Angstroms bluer.
