GNIRS Key Science Opportunity

The Gemini Near-Infrared Spectrograph (GNIRS) is undergoing commissioning as of late January and is nearing availability for observing to the Gemini communities. NOAO is keen to see the powerful capabilities of GNIRS exploited for major scientific initiatives. Hence, NOAO is conducting a pilot program to enable observations with high scientific potential that require significant blocks of time with GNIRS on Gemini South (15 to 20 nights over the next two to three years).
