Eikenberry Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas IN RIES RAYS: BINA GALAXY: CENTER STARS: FORMATION Upon commissioning on Gemini South, FLAMINGOS-2 will be one of the most powerful wide-field near-infraredimagers and multi-object spectrographs ever built for use on 8-meter-class telescopes. In order to take bestadvantage of the strengths of FLAMINGOS-2 early in its life cycle, the instrument team has proposed touse 21 nights of Gemini guaranteed time in 3 surveys { the FLAMINGOS-2 Early Science Surveys (F2ESS).The F2ESS will encompass 3 corresponding science themes the Galactic Center, galaxy evolution, and starformation. The extragalactic survey plays an important role in the planning of EMIR/GTC observations forthe GOYA project, and the Galactic Center survey is a precursor for key planned scientific observations withFRIDA/GTCAO. I will review the status of FLAMINGOS-2, the F2ESS surveys, the additional Gemini GenesisSurvey, and their relationship to and impact on GTC science. 2007 artículo científico 0185-1101 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57102928 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=571 Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica (México) Vol.29 |
