Scientific paper

The Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) on the Sloan Telescope will map 1.4 million galaxies at z < 0.7 and 160,000 QSOs at 2.2 < z < 3.5. Operations began in September 2009 and will continue through June 2014. BOSS features rebuilt spectrographs that improve the throughput and extend the wavelength coverage to span 3600 to 10,000 Ang. We report on the commissioning of the spectroscopic system.
