                                    Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the
impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric
Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has a huge
potential in astrophysics, particle physics and cosmology. CTA is an
international initiative to build the next generation instrument, with a
factor of 5-10 improvement in sensitivity in the 100 GeV-10 TeV range
and the extension to energies well below 100 GeV and above 100 TeV. CTA
will consist of two arrays (one in the north, one in the south) for full
sky coverage and will be operated as open observatory. The design of CTA
is based on currently available technology. This document reports on the
status and presents the major design concepts of CTA.
