摘要
宽视场光谱望远镜（Wide-field Spectroscopic Telescope, WST）被提议作为一种致力于高效交付光谱巡天的新设施。本白皮书总结了初步概念及其相应的科学案例。WST 将具备同时运行的大视场（3 平方度）、高复用率（20,000）多目标光谱仪（MOS）以及巨型 3x3 平方角分积分场光谱仪（IFS）。在科学能力方面，这些要求使 WST 远远领先于现有及规划中的设施。鉴于当前对深空成像巡天的投入以及注意到光谱学的诊断能力，WST 将填补天文能力中的关键空白，并与未来的地面及空间设施协同工作。本白皮书表明，WST 能够解决宇宙学、星系组装、演化与富集（包括我们要银河系）、恒星与行星起源、时域及多信使天体物理学等领域的杰出科学问题。WST 独特的丰富数据集将在许多这些领域带来意想不到的发现。WST 科学团队（目前已包括全球 500 多名科学家）向所有天文学界开放。如需注册加入 WST 科学团队，请访问 https://www.wstelescope.com/for-scientists/participate
