---++Introduction
IRMS is a powerful early-light, adaptive optics-fed, reconfigurable near-infrared multi-object spectrograph (MOS) based on the architecture of the completed MOSFIRE spectrograph developed for Keck Observatory (2005-2012) by Caltech, UCLA, and UCSC.  

---++Project Status
IRMS is in a mini-conceptual design phase, concentrating on design changes arising from recent updates to the NFIRAOS optical design.  Key goals are to understand the implication of the changes to field and pupil curvature to the previously developed IRMS concept designs, evaluate the impact of these changes to the thermal design of the large cryo-vacuum enclosure, and develop conceptual cost and schedule estimates for construction.

---++Partnership
The current IRMS mini-study is a partnership between [[http://www.astro.caltech.edu][Caltech]] and [[http://www.astro.ucr.edu][University of California, Riverside]].  The Project Scientist is Prof. Bahram Mobasher, UCR.  The Study Manager is Dr. Richard Dekany, COO.  The Instrument Engineer is Robert Weber, COO.

The partnerships for preliminary/detailed design and construction of IRMS are not yet determined.  For more information on the Thirty-Meter Telescope Project, visit the [[http://www.tmt.org][TMT Home Page]].
