Paper Abstract
We report on our development of a near-infrared multi-object spectrograph for ground-based applications using the
micro-shutter array, which was originally developed for the Near Infrared Spectrograph of the James Webb Space
Telescope. The micro-shutter array in this case acts as a source selector at a reimaged telescope focal plane. The
developed spectrograph will be implemented either with ground-layer adaptive optics system or multi-conjugate
adaptive optics system on a large telescope. This will enable for the first time fully reconfigurable infrared multi-object
spectroscopy with adaptive optics systems. We envision studying diverse astronomical objects with our spectrograph,
including high-redshift galaxies, galaxy clusters and super star clusters.
