Optical Infrared Co-ordination Network for Astronomy (OPTICON)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Optical-infrared astronomy in Europe is in a state of transition and opportunity, with the goal of a viable structured European scale community in sight. A strong astronomical community requires access to state of the art infrastructures (telescopes), equipped with the best possible instrumentation, and with that access being open to all on a basis of competitive excellence. Further, the community ...

The Preparatory Phase for the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA-PP) (CTA-PP)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2014,
"The Cherenkov Telescope Array CTA will be the first open facility for gamma-ray astronomy in thevery-high-energy domain, with a performance which is dramatically improved over existing instruments in terms of sensitivity, energy coverage, survey capability and flexibility. CTA will probe non-thermal phenomena in the Universe – known to have comparable energy content to other forms of energy ...
