KMOS - Commissioning Costs

Lead Research Organisation: Durham University
Department Name: Physics

Abstract

KMOS is a multi-object near-integral field spectrograph under construction for the ESO VLT. This grant covers the expected costs of commissioning of the complete instrument at Paranal Observatory in Chile during 2012.
