CRIRES reference frames

The CRIRES reference frames pages offer:

• example frames for the daily health check settings
• an atlas of ThAr and N2O wavelength calibration exposures ( updated for P84)
• S/N in flat fields.

Daily Health Check settings

The following CRIRES calibrations are measured daily independent from the settings used during the night:

• DARKs: a set of 3 darks for DIT = 1 and DIT = 300 sec
• FLATs: one flat-field for each for the reference wavelengths 1090.4, 3218.6, and 4092.9 nm
• WAVEs: a ThAr exposure for 1090.4 nm and a N2O exposure at 4092.9 nm.
