Description
OSIRIS (Optical System for Imaging and low Resolution Integrated
Spectroscopy) is designed as an optical Day One instrument for the GTC.
This versatile instrument will be able to perform broad band and tunable
filter imaging, low resolution long slit and multiple-object
spectroscopy, and fast spectrophotometry. In this paper we outline the
main characteristics of the scientific program that is being developed
in anticipation of Day One operation.
