The Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer Spectral Feature Finder II. Estimating Radial Velocity of SPIRE Spectral Observation Sources

The Herschel SPIRE FTS Spectral Feature Finder (FF) detects significant spectral features within SPIRE spectra and employs two routines, and external references, to estimate source radial velocity. The first routine is based on the identification of rotational CO emission, the second cross-correlates detected features with a line template containing most of the characteristic lines in typical far infra-red observations. In this paper, we outline and validate these routines, summarise the results as they pertain to the FF, and comment on how external references were incorporated.

The Herschel SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer Spectral Feature Finder IV. Neutral Carbon Detection in the SPIRE FTS Spectra

The SPIRE FTS Spectral Feature Finder (FF), developed within the Herschel Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) instrument team, is an automated spectral feature fitting routine that attempts to find significant features in SPIRE FTS spectra. The $^3$P$_1$ - $^3$P$_0$ and $^3$P$_2$ - $^3$P$_1$ neutral carbon fine structure lines are common features in carbon rich far-infrared astrophysical sources. These features can be difficult to detect using an automated feature detection routine due to their typically low amplitude and line blending. In this paper we describe and validate the FF sub-routine designed to detect the neutral carbon emission observed in SPIRE spectral data.
