NIRPS is an adaptive optics (AO) fiber-fed spectrograph<br> operating from 0.98 to 1.8 &mu;m and will be operated simultaneously with the<br> optical high-resolution spectrograph HARPS. NIRPS can operate in two modes<br> fed by two different fiber links permanently mounted at the Cassegrain focus<br> that use either 0.4 arcsecond-fibers for the High Accuracy Mode (HAM) or 0.9<br> arcsecond-fibers for the High Efficiency Mode (HEM). The wavelength range of<br> NIRPS is optimal for low-mass M dwarfs and the simultaneous NIRPS and HARPS<br> observations will improve stellar activity filtering methods given their<br> different wavelength coverages. The NIRPS front-end and AO system were<br> already tested on-sky at La Silla. The spectrograph and back-end is to be<br> shipped to La Silla and installed by end of 2021. Already we have adapted the<br> state-of-the-art ESPRESSO data reduction pipeline for NIRPS, obtained<br> accurate wavelength solutions with a Uranium Neon lamp, and obtained drift<br> stability results below 50 cm/s with a Fabry&ndash;P&eacute;rot etalon. We discuss the<br> current and expected instrument performance and the expected science results<br> of NIRPS.</p></description> </descriptions> </resource>
