We present an updated optical and mechanical design of NEWS: the
Near-infrared Echelle for Wide-band Spectroscopy (formerly called HiJaK: the
High-resolution J, H and K spectrometer), a compact, high-resolution,
near-infrared spectrometer for 5-meter class telescopes. NEWS provides a
spectral resolution of 60,000 and covers the full 0.8-2.5 micron range in 5
modes. We adopt a compact, lightweight, monolithic design and developed NEWS to
be mounted to the instrument cube at the Cassegrain focus of the the new
4.3-meter Discovery Channel Telescope.Comment: Proc. SPIE 9908, Ground-based and Airborne Instrumentation for
