Abstract | The 1.2-m United Kingdom Schmidt Telescope has operated a wide- field spectroscopy service for a number of years. A new common- user system has recently been completed. The instrument, known as FLAIR II, offers many more fiber channels than its predecessors, together with wider spectral coverage and faster turn-round of target fields. This paper describes FLAIR II in its present-day form, highlighting the most innovative aspects of its design, and giving a critical evaluation of its performance. Its impact has been significant, and large data-sets are being accumulated for a variety of object-classes. |
