SOXS (Son Of X-Shooter) will be a spectrograph for the ESO NTT telescopecapable to cover the optical and NIR bands, based on the heritage of theX-Shooter at the ESO-VLT. SOXS will be built and run by an internationalconsortium, carrying out rapid and longer term Target of Opportunity requestson a variety of astronomical objects. SOXS will observe all kind of transientand variable sources from different surveys. These will be a mixture of fastalerts (e.g. gamma-ray bursts, gravitational waves, neutrino events), mid-termalerts (e.g. supernovae, X-ray transients), fixed time events (e.g. close-bypassage of minor bodies). While the focus is on transients and variables, stillthere is a wide range of other astrophysical targets and science topics thatwill benefit from SOXS. The design foresees a spectrograph with aResolution-Slit product ~ 4500, capable of simultaneously observing over theentire band the complete spectral range from the U- to the H-band. The limitingmagnitude of R~20 (1 hr at S/N~10) is suited to study transients identifiedfrom on-going imaging surveys. Light imaging capabilities in the optical band(grizy) are also envisaged to allow for multi-band photometry of the faintesttransients. This paper outlines the status of the project, now in Final DesignPhase.
