Scientific paper

During the 2005-2006 Fall/Winter observing term, The Near Infrared Integral Field Spectrograph (NIFS) was commissioned at the Gemini North Observatory on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. NIFS is a high spatial resolution, moderate spectral resolution near infrared integral field spectrograph designed to be used with Gemini's AO system, Altair. In this talk, we will discuss the NIFS instrument design and performance, and present some of the exciting results derived from the commissioning and System Verification observations.(1) - Based on observations obtained at the Gemini Observatory, which is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under a cooperative agreement with the NSF on behalf of the Gemini Partnership: United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Chile, Australia, Brazil and Argentina.
