The ESO Slice Project (ESP)
An early example of what the 2dF survey is now doing over a much larger volume: drawn from same bJ plate material, similar depth. This is the right conference to summarise what we have learned from ESP and compare it to first results from 2dF (e.g. luminosity function)
ESP Team: P. Vettolani, C. Balkowski, A. Blanchard, A. Cappi, V. Cayatte, G. Chincarini, C. Collins, L. Guzzo, D. Maccagni, S. Maurogordato, R. Merighi, G. Mignoli, D. Proust, H. MacGillivray, M. Ramella, R. Scaramella, G. Stirpe, G. Zamorani, E. Zucca (+ J. Bartlett)
Relatively cheap: 24 nights of ESO 3.6m with Optopus fibre coupler (50 fibres)
