EAGLE - An efficient facility spectrometer for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT)
EAGLE is an instrument for the European Extremely Large Telescope
(E-ELT). It is designed for spectroscopic observations, assisted by
Adaptive Optics, of high redshift galaxies and stellar populations at
Mpc distances, strongly complementing the capabilities of JWST and
ALMA. The 2-yr ESO funded phase A study was completed in the fall of
2009 by a consortium of UK and French institutes. The instrument, as
designed, can be built with existing technologies at an affordable
cost and manageable risks. We provide a status report of the
instrument design and system, and provide performance estimates
comparing EAGLE with other space and ground based facilities.
