Abstract
The SPACE and DUNE proposals for the ESA Cosmic Vision 2015-2025 have been pre-selected for a Dark Energy Mission. An assessment study was performed in the past few months resulting in a merged mission called EUCLID. The study led to a possible concept for the mission and the payload, paving the way for the industrial studies. SPACE has now become the EUCLID spectrograph channel (EUCLID-spectro). We will discuss its science and give a description of the different studied optical designs. EUCLID-spectro aims to produce the largest three-dimensional map of the Universe by taking near-IR spectra at R=400 and 0.9μmI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
