New scientific results with SpIOMM: a testbed for CFHT's imagingFourier transform spectrometer SITELLE
2012
We present new data obtained with SpIOMM, the imaging Fourier transform spectrometer attached to the 1.6-m
telescope of the Observatoire du Mont-Megantic in Quebec. Recent technical and data reduction improvements have
significantly increased SpIOMM's capabilities to observe fainter objects or weaker nebular lines, as well as continuum
sources and absorption lines, and to increase its modulation efficiency in the near ultraviolet. To illustrate these
improvements, we present data on the supernova remnant Cas A, planetary nebulae M27 and M97, the Wolf-Rayet ring
nebula M1-67, spiral galaxies M63 and NGC 3344, as well as the interacting pair of galaxies Arp 84.
