title = "Development and design of Second Earth Initiative Spectrograph (2ES)",
abstract = "We report on the design of 2ES (Second Earth Initiative Spectrograph): a new fiber-fed, high-resolution, high-precision radial velocity echelle spectrograph for the 2.2 m ESO/MPG telescope in Chile, which will cover the visible wavelength range ∼370 nm to 850 nm with a resolution of 120, 000. 2ES will be dedicated to a >5-year observing program with access to the majority (2/3) of the telescope time with the goal of discovering temperate terrestrial Earth-mass planets in the habitable zone around the bright solar-type stars. To achieve this goal, 2ES aims for ultra-high instrumental radial-velocity precision and an observing strategy that involves high-cadence observation of the brightest Sun-like stars in the Southern Hemisphere. Here, we present an overview of the project, its observation strategy, the optical design as well as the opto-mechanical concepts and calibration strategies to achieve the required instrument stability.",
