Physics

Scientific paper

NASA's 3-m Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF) on Mauna Kea, HI plays a leading role in obtaining ground-based Solar System observations. MORIS (the MIT Optical Rapid Imaging System [1]) was developed to provide high-speed optical imaging capabilities, primarily for stellar occultations and extrasolar planetary transits. To expand the IRTF's capabilities for planetary observations, we have upgraded the MORIS system to significantly improve its photometric capabilities and image quality. Further, we have developed integrated software to allow simultaneous operation of MORIS with SpeX, the low- to mid-resolution near-infrared (NIR) spectrograph and imager [2].
