... NICS will be the only infrared instrument for the first light of the TNG; as a consequence, we decided to incorporate a sufficient degree of operation flexibility by providing the instrument with six different observing modes, three aimed at imaging and three at spectroscopy: . ... It will be possible to use the narrow band filters as order sorters; this will allow to perform high resolution long-slit spectroscopy in the wavelength ranges covered by the available narrow band filters. ...

At Arecibo we have a variety of optical instruments that we use to study terrestrial airglow emissions. ... As a complement to the airglow instrumentation we also maintain a set of optical instruments, called lidars, used for "active" remote sensing of the atmosphere. That is, we generate our own source signal using lasers and measure the characteristics of the light scattered back from the atmosphere. ... An operations manual for the Optical Laboratories is currently under major revision. ...

... ARC 3.5m | Instrument Summary . ... ARCES (Echelle) : the ARC Echelle spectrograph, a high resolution (R~31,500) echelle spectrograph that observes the entire wavelength range from 3200 е to 10000 in a single image on a 2048x2048 CCD. This instrument is permanently mounted at the NA1 port. ... In addition to the facility instruments, several visitor instruments have been used at the 3.5m, and some of these are available to the ARC observing community by contacting the instrument PIs: . ...
