Prospects for Studying the Local Group with the Subaru Telescope
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
Subaru Telescope is an 8.3-m diameter optical-infrared new-generation telescope under construction on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. The telescope is expected to be operational by early 1999. The current status of its construction and the plans for its instrumentation are presented. The design specifications of the telescope and its seven common user instruments are described, with emphasis on their application to studies of the Local Group.
