Why are G and K Giants Radial Velocity Variables?
Abstract
During the past year ESO has coordinated a number of instrument concept studies as a complement to the OWL Observatory Design Study. Eight teams of scientists and engineers from different institutes in Europe and ESO have identified a variety of science programmes at the frontier of astrophysics and developed concepts of instruments at OWL which would be able to carry them out. This exercise has provided a first view of the unique astronomical observations at Blue to IR wavelengths which will become possible with a future European Extremely Large Telescope.
