KMOS: an infrared multiple-object integral field spectrograph for the ESO VLT
2004
Ground-based Instrumentation for Astronomy
Preserved Fulltext
We describe the design of a 2 nd generation instrument for the ESO VLT which will deliver a unique multiple deployable integral field capability in the near-infrared (1-2.5µm). The science drivers for the instrument are presented and linked to the functional specification. The baseline instrument concept is described with emphasis on technological innovations. Detailed discussions of specific technologies, and ongoing prototype studies, are described in separate papers.
