The VIRMOS consortium of French and Italian Institutes is manufacturing 2 wide field imaging multi-object spectrographs for the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope, with emphasis on the ability to carry over spectroscopic surveys of large numbers of sources. The Visible Multi-Object Spectrograph, VIMOS, is covering the 0.37 to 1 micron wavelength domain, with a full field of view of 4 by 7 by 8 arcmin² in imaging and MOS mode. The Near IR Multi-Object Spectrograph, NIRMOS, is covering the 0.9 to 1.8 microns wavelength range, with afield of view 4 by 6 by 8 arcmin² in MOS mode. The spectral resolution for both instrument scan reach up to R equals 5000 for a 0.5 arcsec wide slit. Multi-slit masks are produced by a dedicated Mask Manufacturing Machine cutting through thin Invar sheets and capable of producing 4 slit masks approximately 300 by 300 mm each with approximately slits 5.7 mm long in less than one hour. Integral field spectroscopy is made possible in VIMOS by switching in the beam specially build masks fed by 6400 fibers coming form a 54 by 54 arcsec² integral field head with a 80 by 80 array of silica micro-lenses. NIRMOS has a similar IFS unit with a field of 30 by 30 arcmin². These instruments are designed to offer very large multiplexing capabilities. In MOS mode, about 1000 objects can be observed simultaneously with VIMOS, with a S/N equals 10 obtained on galaxies with I equals 24 in one hour, and approximately 200 objects can be observed simultaneously with NIRMOS, with a S/N equals 10 obtained don galaxies with J equals 22, H equals 20.6 in 1h at R_eq equals 200. We present here the status of VIMOS, currently under final integration, with expected first light in the summer 2000, together with the final design of NIRMOS presented at the Final Design Review. The VLT-VIRMOS deep redshift survey of more with the final design of NIRMOS presented at the Final Design Review. The VLT-VIRMOS deep redshift survey of more than 150000 galaxies over the redshift range 0 < z < 5 will be undertaken based on 120 guaranteed nights awarded to the project.

Five infrared instruments are now under development or study for ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT). ISAAC (infrared spectrometer and array camera) will be the first to be installed on the first of the 8 m unit telescopes where it will provide for imaging and long slit low and medium resolution spectroscopy in the 1 - 5 micrometers range. This instrument is being developed in-house at ESO and is now in the manufacturing and integration phase with installation scheduled for 1998. CONICA (high resolution near infrared camera) is intended primarily for 1 - 5 micrometers diffraction limited imaging and has been contracted to a consortium of institutes led by the Max Planck Institut fur Astronomie, Heidelberg, Germany with the Max Planck Institut fur Extraterrestrisches Physik, Garching, Germany as partner. Originally planed for coude, it has recently been redesigned for one of the Nasmyth foci of UT1 which will now be equipped with an adaptive optics system following a decision to delay installation of the coude foci. Following completion of a Phase A study, VISIR (mid-IR imager/spectrometer) has been selected as the next IR instrument and negotiation of a development contract is now in progress with the Service d'Astrophysique, Saclay, France who led the study consortium. This instrument is destined for the Cassegrain focus of UT2 and will provide both imaging and spectroscopic capabilities in the 10 micrometers and 20 micrometers windows. CRIRES (cryogenic IR echelle spectrometer), which aims for R approximately 100.000 in the 1 - 5 micrometers range, has been the subject of a concept definition study within ESO and has been rated highly enough scientifically to justify continuation of its associated immersion grating development program. NIRMOS (near IR multi-object spectrometer) has also been the subject of a concept definition study, led by the Observatoire de Meudon, and will soon enter a more detailed study phase of alternative concepts including the possibility of combining visible and near IR multi-object spectroscopy in a single instrument primarily for high redshift galaxy surveys.
