VizieR Online Data Catalog: NGC 3115 MUSE images (Guerou+, 2016)

NGC 3115 was observed during the night of 8 February 2014 using MUSE nominal mode (WFM-N) that allows a continuous wavelength coverage from 4750-9300Å with a varying resolution of R=2000-4000. These data were designed as a first test of the mosaicing abilities of MUSE using an extended (bright) target that showed substructures and had ample published imaging and spectroscopic data for comparison. Five exposures of only 10 minutes each were obtained, each exposure overlapping its neighbours over a quarter of the field of view (i.e. 30"x30"), with the central exposure centred on the galaxy nucleus. The data obtained cover ~4Re (Re~35", Arnold et al. 2014ApJ...791...80A) along the NGC 3115 major axis.
