摘要:

FourStar红外相机是一台1.0-2.5微米(JHKs)近红外相机,用于Las Campanas天文台(智利)的麦哲伦巴德6.5米望远镜。它正在由卡内基天文台和约翰霍普金斯大学的仪器开发小组建造,计划于2009年完工。该仪器使用四个Teledyne HAWAII-2 RG阵列,可产生10.9 x 10.9弧分的视场。在拉斯坎帕纳斯现场的出色的看到加上四星的高灵敏度和大视野将使许多新的调查和有针对性的科学计划。

英文摘要:

The FourStar infrared camera is a 1.0-2.5 micron (JHKs) near infrared camera for the Magellan Baade 6.5m telescope at Las Campanas Observatory (Chile). It is being built by Carnegie Observatories and the Instrument Development Group at Johns Hopkins and is scheduled for completion in 2009. The instrument uses four Teledyne HAWAII-2RG arrays that produce a 10.9 x 10.9 arcmin field of view. The outstanding seeing at the Las Campanas site coupled with FourStar's high sensitivity and large field of view will enable many new survey and targeted science programs.
