The Next Generation Transit Search — •Philipp Eigmüller — Institut für Planetenforschung, Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt, Rutherfordstrasse 2, 12489 Berlin

The 'Next Generation Transit Search' project (ngts) is a new ground-based transit survey aimed at detecting sub-Neptune sized exoplanets around bright stars. It will consist of twelve robotic telescopes with an aperture of 200mm, each equipped with a 2kx2k NIR sensitive detector. NGTS builds upon the experience of past and current surveys. The instrument will be installed at the ESO Paranal observatory in order to benefit from the excellent observing conditions and follow-up synergy with the VLT and E-ELT.
