Abstract

AbstractAn automated system to measure and analyse large numbers of objective prism spectra from photographic plates using the Automated Plate Measuring (APM) facility at Cambridge is described. The system is being applied in a number of ways including automated quasar detection and subsequent clustering analyses, galaxy redshift surveys, and wide field searches for rare objects, such as carbon stars.
