Massive stars are the most powerful lighting sources in our Galaxy. A new born massive star just reveling itself from molecular cloud. The hugh energy photons shined the nearby cloud so that it emits the red light. The solar wind from the star also clean out the dust. It looks like a blooming rose.

A Massive Star Formation W3OH

The three-color image of massive star formation region Sh 2-233IR. This image is made with broad band filter J (blue), H (green), and Ks (red). The remarkable molecular hydrogen jets are seen as bow-shaped shocks.

A Close Look of Star Formation Regions Sh 2-233IR

The wide field of view of WIRCam allows astronomers observing star formation efficiently. Three star formation regions are shown in this image. They are Sh 2-233, Sh 2-233IR and G173.58+2.45 (from right to left).

本所可見光與紅外線天文儀器計畫的發展始於 2001 年與加-法-夏望遠鏡(CFHT)團隊合作的廣角紅外線相機（WIRCam）的研發建造。廣角紅外線相機是目前全世界使用中最大的紅外線相機之一，也是加-法-夏望遠鏡上的主要儀器之一，並於2006年裝置到加-法-夏望遠鏡上。它是藉由鄰接4個2048×2048 HgCdTe 偵測器陣列而達到20角分的大廣角視野，這個大廣角特性使得大尺度的近紅外線成像普查得以進行，在恆星形成、星系結構與演化、宇宙大尺度結構等科學領域造成突破性的大變革。我們正繼續與加-法-夏望遠鏡機構合作下一代儀器─極化光譜儀（SPIROU），負責研發影像穩定與導星相機系統（tip-tilt and viewing camera systems），並合作研發科學相機（science camera）。
