Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph - North (GMOS-N)
|
| TYPE |
|
| DESCRIPTION |
GMOS-N is one of two identical instruments mounted on the Gemini telescopes. GMOS-N is mounted on the Gemini North telescope. The GMOS are long-slit and multi-slit imaging spectrographs with a 5.5 square arcminute field of view and a wavelength range of 0.36-1.03 micrometers. An Integral Field Unit is also available to obtain spectra from a 35 square arcsecond field of view with a sampling of 0.2 arcsec. The Nod-and-Shuffle mode, which enables superior sky subtraction, is available with both GMOS-N and GMOS-S in most spectroscopic modes.
