Scientific paper

A new near-infrared array camera for use in the 1 μm - 5 μm region of the spectrum has been constructed at the University of Rochester. This camera has been used successfully at the C. E. Kenneth Mees Observatory of the University of Rochester and at Kitt Peak National Observatory, National Optical Astronomy Observatories. The camera is based on a 32 × 32 element InSb array on loan from the Santa Barbara Research Center. The performance of most of the individual detectors is comparable to or better than the performance of any single element InSb detector system currently in use for astronomy. We give a thorough description of the camera system and of the image processing, and we present some images of various astronomical objects that are presently under investigation by our research group.
