Swift J1910.2-0546/MAXI J1910-057: Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy with the Liverpool Telescope
Abstract
We report on optical spectroscopy of the high-energy transient Swift J1910.2-0546 / MAXI 1910-057 (ATel #4139; #4140; #4171; #4195; #4198) using the 2m Liverpool Telescope on La Palma and the FRODOSPEC spectrograph. On 2012 June 18 (01:25 UTC) we obtained 1500s exposures simultaneously in the red (5700-8050A at 0.59A/pixel) and blue (3800-5150A at 0.35A/pixel) using the integral field unit, and giving central resolutions of 1.3 and 0.8A respectively.
