(Spectroscopic Imaging Survey in the Near-infrared with SINFONI)
(near-infrared study of distant luminous galaxies)

SINS (for Spectroscopic Imaging Survey in the Near-infrared with SINFONI) was a study using the ESO VLT instrument, SINFONI, covering redshift 1 to 4 over the near infrared (1-2.5 μm).

zC-SINF was a follow-up survey in collaboration with the zCOSMOS (Cosmic Evolution Survey) team, using SINFONI to view the COSMOS galaxies.
