Description
CTA will be the first Cerenkov Facility designed for observatory operation.
This will facilitate multifrequency studies of stationary, variable, and transient sources.
The radio- and VHE gamma-ray sky are dominated by non-thermal sources and joint studies in both bands will provide matching constraints on source properties and radiation mechanisms.
Properties and construction time-scales of the two stations operating 120 telescopes as well as modes of operation and access will be described.
