Descriptions
Abstract: The Fornax3D project is an integral field spectroscopic survey of the Fornax cluster of galaxies that targets the 31 galaxies brighter than mB=15 within the virial radius of the cluster center. The survey was conducted under the ESO programme id 296.B-5054(A), PI M. Sarzi and E. Iodice, with MUSE at the ESO VLT in nominal wide-field mode instrument configuration that ensures a spatial sampling of 0.2×0.2 arcsec^2, a wavelength coverage from 4650 to 9300 Å with a spectral sampling of 1.25 Å/pixel, and a nominal spectral resolution of FWHM = 2.5 Å at 7000 Å.
Other: This is a dynamic dataset; it is growing as new data is added. The DOI refers to the newest available dataset.
