Second GMT High Resolution Spectroscopy Workshop
We will host a Workshop on high resolution visible and near
infrared (1-5 micron) spectroscopy with GMT. Our intention
is to focus on the scientific problems to be addressed,
and how these science requirements will then drive possible
designs for GMT instruments such as Q-Spec, SHARPS, and GMTNIRS.
Since the science is not necessarily restricted to particular
wavelengths or to the physics of particular detectors, we will
include both visible and 1-5 micron near-infrared spectroscopy.
The workshop will be held on the University of Texas campus
on Friday-Saturday, January 16-17, 2009, in ACE(S) 2.402
(map). This is the week
following the January 2009 AAS meeting, and is a week when
classes are not in session at the University of Texas.
