Note: | Mapping Nearby Galaxies at APO (Apache Point Observatory) is a survey component of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Its goal is to map the detailed composition and kinematic structure of 10000 nearby galaxies. MaNGA uses integral field unit (IFU) spectroscopy to measure spectra for hundreds of points within each galaxy. The format NN-NNNNNNNNN is the combination of the catalog ID and the line number ("CatalogID-LineNumber"). For more information, visit: http://www.sdss.org/surveys/manga/ In bright time, the MaNGA instrument has been used to observe stars for MaNGA Stellar Library (MaStar), to build a comprehensive optical stellar spectral library with which to calibrate the galaxy observations. Only the first references citing MaNGA sources are listed here. |
