Descripción
We present an overview of the near-InfraRed Multi-Object Spectrograph
(IRMOS) for the Thirty Meter Telescope, as developed under a Feasibility
Study at the University of Florida and Herzberg Institute of
Astrophysics. IRMOS incorporates a multi-object adaptive optics
correction capability over a 5-arcminute field of regard on TMT. Up to
20 independently-selectable target fields-of-view with ~2-arcsec
diameter can be accessed within this field simultaneously. IRMOS
provides near-diffraction-limited integral field spectroscopy over the
0.8-2.5 μm bandpass at R~1,000-20,000 for each target field. We give
a brief summary of the Design Reference science cases for IRMOS. We then
present an overview of the IRMOS baseline instrument design.
