摘要：

ARNICA (ARcetri Near-Infrared CAmera) is the imaging camera for the near-infrared bands between 1.0 and 2.5 mu m that the Arcetri Observatory has designed and built for the Infrared Telescope TIRGO located at Gornergrat, Switzerland. We describe the mechanical and optical design of the camera, and report on the astronomical performance of ARNICA as measured during the commissioning runs at the TIRGO (1992 December to 1993 December), and an observing run at the William Herschel Telescope, Canary Islands (1993 December). System performance is defined in terms of efficiency of the camera+telescope system and camera sensitivity for extended and point-like sources.
