This is the second ESO workshop in aseries dedicated to science oppor- tunities with the VLT.At the first workshop all areas of astronomical research were discussed.This second workshop is dedicated to research projects on the early Universe and has provided a forum for discussing strategies for studying faint distant objects in the optical and infrared spectral regions.This field is evolving very rapidly. There are several new surveys of galax- ies and clusters of galaxies at intermediate redshift and quasars at very high redshift.Major advances in the morphological studies of distant galaxies, surveys of galaxies at high redshift and searches for primeval galaxies have been rendered possible by the new facilities provided by the Rubble Space Telescope and the Keck Telescope.Observational constraints on the evolution and formation of galaxies and large-scale structures as well as the cosmic chemical evolution were criti- cally discussed with regard to theory and numerical simulations.In this context, the VLT first generation instrument capabilities were presented comprehensively and their use as cosmological tools discussed .The concluding remarks of the workshop focussed on the analysis of var- ious possibilities for the VLT second generation instrumentation.Many of these topics were covered by invited reviews and talks, as well as some contributed talks.They are included in this volume together with the poster papers.; PDF; Scientific, Technical and Medical > Astronomy, space & time, Springer Berlin Heidelberg<

This is the second ESO workshop in aseries dedicated to science oppor­ tunities with the VLT. At the first workshop all areas of astronomical research were discussed. This second workshop is dedicated to research projects on the early Universe and has provided a forum for discussing strategies for studying faint distant objects in the optical and infrared spectral regions. This field is evolving very rapidly. There are several new surveys of galax­ ies and clusters of galaxies at intermediate redshift and quasars at very high redshift.
