This unique instrument deploys 13 fused fiber bundles (hexabundles) across a one-degree field of view allowing simultaneous spatially resolved spectroscopy of 13 galaxies. During the first SAMI commissioning run, targeting a single galaxy field, one object (ESO 185-G031) was found to have extended minor axis emission with ionization and kinematic properties consistent with a large-scale galactic wind. The importance of this result is twofold: (1) fiber bundle spectrographs are able to identify low surface brightness emission arising from extranuclear activity and (2) such activity may be more common than presently assumed because conventional multi-object spectrographs use single-aperture fibers and spectra from these are nearly always dominated by nuclear emission. These early results demonstrate the extraordinary potential of multi-object hexabundle spectroscopy in future galaxy surveys.Author/s retain copyrightKeywords: galaxies: evolution; galaxies: individual (ESO 185-G031); galaxies: kinematics and dynamics; galaxies: star formation; techniques: imaging spectroscopyFirst science with SAMI: A serendipitously discovered galactic wind in ESO 185-G031201210.1088/0004-637X/761/2/1692016-02-24
