F25CN270-NUV-MAMA


Description

The F25CN270 filter with the NUV-MAMA provides medium bandwidth imaging near the 2798 Å MgII feature.

Recommended Uses

Continuum filter for MgII imaging.

Special Considerations

There is a substantial redleak in this filter. Sources with a red underlying continuum may be difficult to observe. Users should be careful to take into account the underlying continuum in estimating whether the observation will fall within the bright-object protection limits.
