Hi! I am unfamiliar with manipulating
fits files in IRAF, and was hoping
someone could suggest a method that
could be used to convert a simple, but
very large, 3-column text file to a
multi-order fits file that will be
analysed in splot.

In fitting multiple Gaussian profiles in
splot or fitprofs, is there a way to fix
one center wavelength and let the others
vary? There appears to be only the
options of fixing all wavelengths,
shifting all wavelengths or letting all
wavelengths vary.......

splot: deblending with constant redshiftStarted by:chewbacca, 07/27/2014 11:47AM
Hi,

I am using splot to fit doppler shift in

I would like to take advantage of the
'single' option in the deblending
routine.
However, my lines are separated by ~150
nm so Delta(lambda) can vary quite a lot
