Introduction

This page provides information concerning MOSAIC, a proposed multi-capability near-IR/optical imager and spectrograph to exploit wide field adaptively corrected images (facilitated by means of a Rayleigh laser beacon).

• A brief overview of MOSAIC [ps] (taken from slides prepared for the May 2000 Instrumentation Working Group meeting).
