Science requirements and performances for EAGLE for the E-ELT (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Evans, C., Lehnert, M., Cuby, J. .-G., Morris, S., Puech, M., Welikala, N., Swinbank, A., & Schnetler, H. (2010, July). Science requirements and performances for EAGLE for the E-ELT. Presented at Ground-based and Airborne Instrumentation for Astronomy III, San Diego, California

EAGLE is a Phase A study of a multi-IFU, near-IR spectrometer for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT). The design employs wide-field adaptive optics to deliver excellent image quality across a large (38.5 arcmin2) field. When combined with...

The physics of galaxy evolution with EAGLE (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Puech, M., Lehnert, M., Yang, Y., Cuby, J. .-G., Morris, S., Evans, C., Neichel, B., Fusco, T., Rousset, G., & Flores, H. (2009, June). The physics of galaxy evolution with EAGLE. Presented at 1st AO4ELT conference - Adaptive Optics for Extremely Large Telescopes, Paris, France

One of the prominent science goal of the ELTs will be to study the physics and mass assembly of galaxies at very high redshifts. Here, we present the galaxy evolution science case for EAGLE, which is a NIR multi-integral field spectrograph for the E-... Read More about The physics of galaxy evolution with EAGLE.

Galactic Centre science with an ELT (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Paumard, T., Clénet, Y., Davies, R., Genzel, R., Lehnert, M., Cuby, J. .-G., Morris, S., & team, T. E. (2009, June). Galactic Centre science with an ELT. Presented at 1st AO4ELT conference - Adaptive Optics for Extremely Large Telescopes, Paris, France

10m-class telescopes such as the VLT and the Keck Telescope have allowed tremendous progress on the understanding of environment of Sgr A*, the supermassive black hole at the Galactic Centre. However, these telescopes and associated instrumentation a... Read More about Galactic Centre science with an ELT.
