> Abstract:
> The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a new observatory for very 
> high-energy (VHE) gamma rays. CTA has ambitions science goals, for 
> which it is necessary to achieve full-sky coverage, to improve the 
> sensitivity by about an order of magnitude, to span about four decades 
> of energy, from a few tens of GeV to above 100 TeV with enhanced 
> angular and energy resolutions over existing VHE gamma-ray 
> observatories. An international collaboration has formed with more 
> than 1000 members from 27 countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and North 
> and South America. In 2010 the CTA Consortium completed a Design Study 
> and started a three-year Preparatory Phase which leads to production 
> readiness of CTA in 2014. In this paper we introduce the science goals 
> and the concept of CTA, and provide an overview of the project.
