### Integral field spectroscopy with the gemini multiobject spectrograph. I. Design, construction, and testing

Abstract:

The Gemini Multiobject Spectrograph (GMOS) installed on the Gemini-North telescope has a facility for integral field spectroscopy over the wavelength range 0.4-1.0 μm. GMOS is converted to this mode by the remote insertion of an integral field unit (IFU) into the beam in place of the masks used for the multiobject mode. With the IFU deployed, integral field spectroscopy is available over a fully filled contiguous field of 5″ × 7″ with a sampling of 0″.2. A separate field of half the area, but...
