2 BDRv3 - November 26, Markus Kissler-Patig E-ELT Programme 2 The Science Case against which we evaluate the project resides on three pillars: - contemporary science cases (DRM, instrument teams, DRSP,...) - synergy with other facilities (8m-class telescopes, interferometry, ALMA, JWST, LSST/surveys, SKA,...) - discovery potential (open unique parameter space, be prepared for the unexpected,...)

Markus Kissler-Patig - ELT Science Case JWST key science The End of the Dark Ages: First Light and Reionization Assembly of Galaxies ➱ optical/NIR sensitive multi-object spectrographs The Birth of Stars and Protoplanetary Systems Planetary Systems and the Origins of Life ➱ mid-IR instrument (high spatial/spectral resolution at 3-15 μm) ➱ planet-finder (incl. low-resolution spectroscopy and polarimetry)

Markus Kissler-Patig - ELT Science Case ALMA key science Detect spectral line emission from CO or CII in a normal galaxy like the Milky Way at a redshift of z = 3, in less than 24 hours of observation. ➱ NIR sensitive integral spectrograph and imager Image the gas kinematics in protostars and in protoplanetary disks around young Sun-like stars at a distance of the nearest star-forming clouds. ➱ NIR and mid-IR high-spectral resolution instruments Provide precise images at an angular resolution of 0.1 arcsec.

Markus Kissler-Patig - ELT Science Case The Unknown

Markus Kissler-Patig - ELT Science Case Enabling discovery is achieved by opening parameter space (see Martin Harwit: “Cosmic Discovery”) The E-ELT excels - in collecting power and - in spatial resolution. These should not be compromised and pushed into a range unattained previously.
