Introduction

Welcome to the BINGO!'s Wiki. BINGO!, which stands for "history of Baryons: INtergalactic medium/Galaxies cO-evolution", is a 4-year ANR ("Agence Nationale de la Recherche"; http://www.agence-nationale-recherche.fr/) funded project to start January 2009 (ANR-08-BLAN-0316-01). BINGO! is a consortium of three institutes based in Marseille, Lyon and Paris. The science case for the project is summarized below.

Lyon


Lyon is situated at the foot of the French Alps. The Centre de Recherche Astrophysique de Lyon (CRAL), at the Observatoire de Lyon (http://www-obs.univ-lyon1.fr/), has has recently contributed to major instrumental projects in 3D spectroscopy (i.e. OASIS, SAURON, MUSE) but also has a unique world-class expertise in semi-analytic modeling (in particular with GALICS), in the construction of mock catalogues (MOMAF, MOLUSC), and in the analysis of cosmological simulations (N-body, SPH, and AMR). This know-how has allowed the CRAL to play a major role in the HORIZON Project (funded by the ANR).

Our group has developed along the years a unique tradition of interaction between modelers and observational projects. In particular, we are closely collaborating with the VVDS team and with the GALEX team in Marseille. The CRAL hosts the PI (R. Bacon) and one co-I (B. Guiderdoni) of the MUSE instrument (to be on VLT); and J. Blaizot and others at the CRAL are members of the MUSE science team. The CRAL is also playing a key role in the technological development of NIRSpec (to be on the JWST), with the participation of P. Ferruit; and the CRAL is part of the ELIXIR european network (coordinated by S. Charlot) which aims to support the scientific preparation of guaranteed time observations with the JWST. J. Blaizot is also part of a couple of ESO large program proposals (PIs: G. Guzzo, S. Arnouts), and of the SPACE mission proposal to ESA (PI: A. Cimatti).

On top of a solid French network, our group has also developed strong interactions with the Oxford department of astrophysics and with the Potsdam Institute for Astrophysics. These collaborations will contribute to the smooth development of our project. Moreover, the CRAL is organising every second summer an international conference on selected topics.
