Instruments
Instruments are divided into facility instruments and PI instruments.
Facility instruments are available for all users
PI instruments require approval of the instrument PI
prior to proposal submission
PI instruments are indicated in the list below

Starting in the 2008B semester, we will experiment with
interventions for targets of opportunity (TOO). The
guidelines for Magellan
interventions describe the science goals and the responsibilities
for the PI and other Magellan observers.
