Abstract
Euclid is an ESA mission to map the geometry of the dark Universe. The mission will investigate the distance-redshift relationship and the evolution of cosmic structures. It achieves this by measuring shapes and redshifts of galaxies and clusters of galaxies out to redshifts ~2, or equivalently to a lookback time of 10 billion years. It will therefore cover the entire period over which dark energy played a
significant role in accelerating the expansion.
The Near IR Spectrometer Photometer (NISP) role is to measure the galaxies' redshift. The baseline for
NISP is an Infrared instrument allowing observation in slit less "spectrometry" mode thanks to several
Grisms, or in "Photometry" mode using several filters.
The NISP instrument is provided by the EUCLID consortium, led by the Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de
Marseille (LAM).
