A Million Element Integral Field Unit (MEIFU) (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Morris, S., Content, R., Sharples, R., Bower, R., Davies, R., & Baugh, C. (2002, December). A Million Element Integral Field Unit (MEIFU). Presented at ESO Workshop, Garching, Germany

We describe an instrument concept that will provide simultaneous spectra for a million spatial samples on the sky. With the proposed field of view and spectral resolution, it will be able to measure redshifts and line strengths for around 2-4000 z∼∼3...

We use more than 110 500 galaxies from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) to estimate the bJ-band galaxy luminosity function at redshift z= 0, taking account of evolution, the distribution of magnitude measurement errors and small corrections fo...
