Issue Date: | 2016 | Journal: | THE MESSENGER | Number: | 164 | First Page: | 14 | Abstract: | The Very Large Telescope spectrometer and imager for the mid-infrared (VISIR) was upgraded in 2015 with new detectors and several new modes were added. Science Verification (SV) is carried out for new ESO instruments as well as for substantial upgrades to existing instruments. Sparse aperture masking and coronagraphy in the mid infrared have now been added to VISIR’s capabilities and during SV these new observational modes, together with the recommissioned burst mode, were used to demonstrate the observational capabilities of the instrument. The SV process for VISIR is briefly described and some results from the successful observations are presented. All SV data are publicly available. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/24348 | URL: | http://www.eso.org/sci/publications/messenger/ | ISSN: | 0722-6691 | Bibcode ADS: | 2016Msngr.164...14A | Fulltext: | open |
