Smithsonian stratospheric far-infrared spectrometer and data reduction system

The Smithsonian far-infrared spectrometer is a remote sensing Fourier transform spectrometer that measures the midand far-infrared thermal emission spectrum of the stratosphere from balloon and aircraft platforms. The spectrometer has had nine successful balloon flights from 1987 to 1994, flying at float altitudes of 36–39 km and collecting 131 hours of midlatitude stratospheric limb spectra. T...

Working with Mike

Mike and I worked together for half a century. To date, I’ve had some twenty-five collaborators—co-authors of joint papers and books; there’s no question that Mike is the premier one. He and I wrote three joint papers—the original Bargaining Set paper (21), the one on the Minimax Principle (38), and the Talmud paper (50)—and one joint book (64), about repeated games of incomplete information.

The Michigan/mike Fiber System Survey of Stellar Radial Velocities in Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies: Acquisition and Reduction of Data

We introduce a stellar velocity survey of dwarf spheroidal galaxies, undertaken using the Michigan/MIKE Fiber System (MMFS) at the Magellan/Clay 6.5 m telescope at Las Campanas Observatory. As of 2006 November we have used MMFS to collect 6415 high-resolution (R = 20000− 25000) spectra from 5180 stars in four dwarf spheroidal galaxies: Carina, Fornax, Sculptor and Sextans. Spectra sample the ra...
