VizieR Online Data Catalog: Swift/BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey. I. (Koss+, 2017)
Abstract
A large fraction of the data we use are drawn from several large public catalogs of optical spectra (see "Source" in table 2 and section 2.2.1).
The other sources of spectra for our analysis are dedicated spectroscopic observational campaigns of BAT AGN, taken over the last several years using a variety of telescopes and instruments. We had several large, multi-year programs on small 1-2m telescopes. For 52 sources, the spectral measurements were taken with the KPNO 2.1m telescope and the GoldCam spectrograph. There were also programs using the Perkins 1.8m telescope and DeVeny Spectrograph at the Lowell Observatory and CTIO 1.5m RC spectrograph (PI M. Crenshaw). We also had optical spectroscopic programs using larger telescopes. For 29 sources, the spectral measurements were obtained with the Gemini North and South telescopes, using the twin Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph (GMOS) instruments. The GMOS observations took place between 2009 and 2012, as part of nine different observing programs (P.I. M. Koss, E. Treister, and K. Schawinski). In this study we use data from Gemini programs GN-2009B-Q-114, GN-2010A-Q-35, GN-2011A-Q-81, GN-2011B-Q-96, GN-2012A-Q-28, GN-2012B-Q-25, GS-2010A-Q-54, and GS-2011B-Q80. We used the Palomar Double Spectrograph (DBSP) on the Hale 200 inch Hale telescope for 35 targets (P.I. F. Harrison and D. Stern). The observations were performed between 2012 October and 2015 February. Finally, we had smaller programs using the 3.5m Apache Point telescope (APO, 4 sources), the 3m Shane telescope at the Lick observatory (4 sources), and the UH 2.2m telescope (5 sources).
