We describe the integral field spectroscopy (IFS) capability of the Gemini Near-infrared Spectrograph (GNIRS) installed on the Gemini-South telescope. This makes use of the Advanced Image Slicer (AIS) optical concept of Content. Image slicing is, in... Read More about New techniques for integral field spectroscopy - I.

We present results from cryogenic tests of volume-phase holographic (VPH) gratings at ∼100  K∼100  K. The aims of these tests are to see whether the diffraction efficiency as a function of wavelength is significantly different at a low temperature fr...
