Near-IR integral field spectroscopy with adaptive optics

Integral field spectroscopy, in conjunction with adaptive optics systems, has the unique potential of providing spectra at spatial resolutions close to the diffraction limit of the telescope. We present first results from integral field spectroscopy in conjunction with an adaptive optics system, ach...

description Integral field spectroscopy, in conjunction with adaptive optics systems, has the unique potential of providing spectra at spatial resolutions close to the diffraction limit of the telescope. We present first results from integral field spectroscopy in conjunction with an adaptive optics system, achieving diffraction limited images and spectra at the Calar Alto 3.5 meter telescope. SINFONI, an adaptive optics assisted integral field spectrometer currently being built for the VLT, is one of the few adaptive optics optimized integral field instruments. We present a brief summary of its features, together with a brief description of the image slicer employed in SINFONI.
