A September 2009 service installed an AO pupil stop into filter wheel 2 to expand the wavelength coverage of NIRSPAO to the thermal (L- & M-bands). The filters page has information on how to control the filter wheels while the specifications page has wavelength information.
We have not performed any detailed sensitivities calculations, but we have some KL data available for observers. We have not yet taken data in M-band.
HIP 18612, Sp. Type G5, V=9.158, K=7.635, L~7.6.
