　　题目：The European Extremely Large Telescope and its first instruments

　　地点：溢智厅 

　　Abstract: 

　　Extremely Large Telescopes are considered worldwide as one of the highest priorities in ground-based astronomy. They will vastly advance astrophysical knowledge, allowing detailed studies of subjects including planets around other stars, the first objects in the Universe, super-massive black holes, and the nature and distribution of the dark matter and dark energy which dominate the Universe. 　　  

　　Since the end of 2005 the european southern observatory ESO has been working together with its user community of European astronomers and astrophysicists to define the new giant telescope needed by the middle of the next decade. 　　  

　　Dubbed E-ELT for European Extremely Large Telescope, this revolutionary new ground-based telescope concept will have a 39-metre main mirror and will be the largest optical/near-infrared telescope in the world: “the world’s biggest eye on the sky”. 　　  

　　Stefan Hippler will tell more about the beginning of the E-ELT project, the current status, and the involvement of the Max-Planck-Insitute for Astronomy in this project. 

　　Biography: 　　   

　　Dr. Stefan Hipper received his PhD in experimental physics at the University of Giessen, Germany, in 1988.  After his PhD he joined the Max-Planck-Institute for Astronomy (MPIA) as instrumentation and software specialist. He became the leader of MPIA’s adaptive optics group in 1999. Dr. Stefan Hippler research interests focus on astronomical instrumentation, including adaptive optics and laser guide stars. He performed research for more than 25 years in many fields related to high angular resulution astronomy, and supported more than 12, mostly international, astronomical instrumentation projects. He is in charge of managing the GRAVITY adaptive optics instrument for the Paranal Observatory and leading the adaptive optics system of the METIS instrument, which is foreseen for the European Extremely Large Telescope. Now he is working as Visiting Professor at the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
