IGRINS (Immersion Grating Infrared Spectrograph) is a high-resolution (R ~ 40,000), near-infrared (H and K simultaneously) spectrograph developed by Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute and the University of Texas at Austin. It is being operated at the 2.7-m telescope of the McDonald observatory. Here we solicit proposals for the 2016 Trimester 1. For this trimester, about 5 nights of Korean Guaranteed time will be offered to a normal user. Alternatively, one can apply for the McDonald Open Time. More details can be found from the web page below. If you have any other inquiry, please feel free to contact us at kgmtscience@kasi.re.kr anytime.
