Abstract

The Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI) has been taking excellent integral field spectroscopy of blue wavelengths 350 - 560 nm for the last 7 years. Thanks to the Keck Cosmic Reionization Mapper (KCRM) project, KCWI will now be able to take simultaneous red wavelength data 560 - 1080 nm with configurable spectral resolutions from 500 − −13, 000 in a field of view up to 20”x33”. We will summarize the red side’s installation, commissioning, new capabilities with the 7 red volume phase holographic (VPH) gratings, and science readiness. The KCRM project team was led by Caltech in partnership with the University of California at Santa Cruz and the W. M. Keck Observatory.
