Scientific paper

The United Kingdom 3.8 m Infrared Telescope (UKIRT) located at the summit of Mauna Kea on the big island of Hawaii is described. Summit sky conditions are photometric more than half the time and spectroscopic more than three quarters of the time. Photometry through all atmospheric windows in the 1 to 30 micrometer range and spectroscopy in the 1 to 5 micrometer range are possible. The telescope is equipped with a 1 to 5 micrometer infrared camera housing a 58 by 62 element detector array. Other individual instruments and aspects of operation at the telescope are described.
