Descripción
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.
