论文摘要
詹姆斯·韦伯（James Webb）太空望远镜的近红外摄像头正在提供自1990年代JWST提出以来天文学家一直希望的图像。在从发射后延伸到2022年7月上旬Nircam的调试期内，Nircam经过了许多绩效测试和运营检查。该相机几乎在所有区域都超出了发布前的期望，在飞行中发现了很少的惊喜。 Nircam还交付了波前传感团队所需的图像，用于对齐望远镜镜面段（\ citealt {acton_etal2022}，\ perealt {mcelwain_etal2022}）。
The Near Infrared Camera for the James Webb Space Telescope is delivering the imagery that astronomers have hoped for ever since JWST was proposed back in the 1990s. In the Commissioning Period that extended from right after launch to early July 2022 NIRCam has been subjected to a number of performance tests and operational checks. The camera is exceeding pre-launch expectations in virtually all areas with very few surprises discovered in flight. NIRCam also delivered the imagery needed by the Wavefront Sensing Team for use in aligning the telescope mirror segments (\citealt{Acton_etal2022}, \citealt{McElwain_etal2022}).
