Optical Filters

Here are the transmission curves of all the filters we have at the Wheaton Observatory (WO). The transmission curves were generated by Judy Long (class of 2014) and Shereen Velupillai (class of 2015), using the high-resolution spectrometer in the Laser Spectroscopy lab (thanks to Prof. John Collins).

The CSV data for these can be obtained by emailing us at maitra_dipankar@wheatoncollege.edu.
