Molecfit: A general tool for telluric absorption correction - I. Method and application to ESO instruments

TL;DR: Molecfit as discussed by the authors combines a publicly available radiative transfer code, a molecular line database, atmospheric profiles, and various kernels to model the instrument line spread function and is able to accurately model and correct for telluric lines over a broad range of wavelengths and spectral resolutions.

Molecfit: A general tool for telluric absorption correction. I. Method and application to ESO instruments

TL;DR: Molecfit as mentioned in this paper combines a publicly available radiative transfer code, a molecular line database, atmospheric profiles, and various kernels to model the instrument line spread function, taking the best results for temperature, pressure, and humidity in the atmosphere above the observatory into account.
Journal ArticleDOI

VISIR / VLT mid-infrared imaging of Seyfert nuclei: nuclear dust emission and the Seyfert-2 dichotomy

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison between [OIII] λ 5007 A and mid-infrared imaging at matching spatial resolution is presented, showing that the distributions of nuclear midinfrared luminosity ratios are indistinguishable for Sy1s and Sy2s with and without detected polarised broad lines and irrespective of having warm or cool IRAS F25/F60 ratios.

Molecfit: A Package for Telluric Absorption Correction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a software package aimed at performing telluric feature corrections on the basis of synthetic absorption spectra, which can save a significant amount of valuable telescope time and increase its efficiency.
