IRIM to Remain in Service at Kitt Peak! (1Dec94) (from KPNO, NOAO Newsletter No. 40, 1 December 1994) Through the new NOAO Instrumentation plan we are able to continue to provide the HgCdTe infrared imager IRIM beyond the spring semester at Kitt Peak. The wide field capability it provides for infrared imaging is quite popular, especially at the 4-m telescope. We are pleased that we can continue to make it available. This continuation is due largely to the implementation of the Joint NOAO Instrumentation Program by KPNO and CTIO. This has allowed us to combine resources to provide well balanced instrument capabilities North and South while also pursuing a vigorous development program. IRIM will remain in its present configuration with its demonstrated performance unchanged. Ron Probst
