Integral Field Spectroscopy with the Gemini 8-m Telescopes
B. W. Miller, J. Turner, M. Takamiya +2
We give an overview of the current and future IFU capabilities on the Gemini 8-m telescopes. The telescopes are well-suited to integral field spectroscopy and both telescopes will…
A Near-Infrared Wide-Field Proper Motion Search for Brown Dwarfs
J. L. Hinz, D. W. McCarthy, D. A. Simons +3
A common proper motion survey of M dwarf stars within 8 pc of the Sun reveals no new stellar or brown dwarf companions at wide separations (~100-1400 AU). This survey tests whether…
The Mauna Kea Observatories Near-Infrared Filter Set. I: Defining Optimal 1-5 m Bandpasses
D. A. Simons, A. T. Tokunaga
A new MKO-NIR infrared filter set is described, including techniques and considerations given to designing a new set of bandpasses that are useful at both mid- and high-altitude si…
The Mauna Kea Observatories Near-Infrared Filter Set. II. Specifications for a New JHKL'M' Filter Set for Infrared Astronomy
A. T. Tokunaga, D. A. Simons, W. D. Vacca
We present a description of a new 1--5 m filter set similar to the long-used JHKLM filter set derived from that of Johnson. The new Mauna Kea Observatories Near-Infrared (MKO-NI…
The Stellar Content Near the Galactic Center
T. J. Davidge, D. A. Simons, F. Rigaut +2
High angular resolution J, H, K, and L' images are used to investigate the stellar content within 6 arcsec of SgrA*. The data, which are complete to K ~ 16, are the deepest multico…
