CIRCULARLY VARIABLE FILTER ========================== Instrument Overview =================== This document describes the instrument used to obtain the infrared spectrum of 951 Gaspra reported in Goldader et al. 1991, A. J. 102, 1503-1509 [GOLDADERETAL1991]. The instrumentation consisted of a double CVF with a liquid nitrogen cooled InSb photometer. The short half of the CVF (denoted DCS) covered the region from ~0.8 - 1.6 microns with 3% resolution, and the long half (denoted DCL) covered ~1.5 - 2.5 microns at 5% resolution. For this spectrum, every other position of the CVF was sampled for the DCS data.null References ========== Bugayevskiy, L. M., and Snyder, J.
