Scientific paper

Attention is given to the design features and measured or projected performance of several astronomical research instruments which can be used with the Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT). Among these, the high resolution Echelle spectrograph, the intermediate resolution spectrograph, and the IR photometer, have reached a stage of development and reliability at which any qualified astronomer, after receiving the requisite instruction, can apply for observational use of them. The optical speckle camera, Fourier transform spectrometers and IR Michelson interferometer incorporated by the MMT, however, are either very specialized or still undergoing development and testing.
