Taurus Tunable Filter -- seven years of observing

Astrophysics 2011-03-10 v1

Abstract

The Taurus Tunable Filter (TTF) has now been in regular use for seven years on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. The instrument was also used for three years (1996--1999) on the William Herschel Telescope. We present a brief review of the different applications in order to illustrate the versatility of tunable filters in optical/IR spectrophotometric imaging. Tunable filters are now planned or are under development for 6-10m class telescopes which ensures their use for years to come.
