Presentation / Conference Contribution
Morris, S., Content, R., Sharples, R., Bower, R., Davies, R., & Baugh, C. (2002). A Million Element Integral Field Unit (MEIFU). In Scientific Drivers for ESO Future VLT/VLTI Instrumentation: Proceedings of the ESO Workshop Held in Garching, Germany, 11-15 June 2001 (99-107). https://doi.org/10.1007/10857019_16

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...

Integral field spectroscopy with the Gemini Multiobject Spectrograph. I. design, construction, and testing (2002)
Journal Article
Allington-Smith, J., Murray, G., Content, R., Dodsworth, G., Davies, R., Miller, B., …Murowinski, R. (2002). Integral field spectroscopy with the Gemini Multiobject Spectrograph. I. design, construction, and testing. Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 114(798), 892-912

The Gemini Multiobject Spectrograph (GMOS) installed on the Gemini-North telescope has a facility for integral field spectroscopy over the wavelength range 0.4-1.0 mum. GMOS is converted to this mode by the remote insertion of an integral field unit... Read More about Integral field spectroscopy with the Gemini Multiobject Spectrograph.

The origin of [FeII] emission in NGC 4151 (2002)
Journal Article
Turner, J., Allington-Smith, J., Chapman, S., Content, R., Done, C., Haynes, R., …Morris, S. (2002). The origin of [FeII] emission in NGC 4151. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 331(2), 284-292. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-8711.2002.05214.x

The centre of NGC 4151 has been observed in the J band with the SMIRFS integral field unit (IFU) on the UK Infrared Telescope. A map of [Fe ii] emission is derived, and compared with the distributions of the optical narrow-line region and radio jet.... Read More about The origin of [FeII] emission in NGC 4151.
