ALMA proposal preparation day 2016

11-12 April 2016 – Osservatorio di Radioastronomia Bologna, Italy

In preparation for the ALMA Cycle 4 proposal submission deadline of April 21st, the Italian node of the European ARC is organizing an “ALMA proposal preparation day” to support the ALMA users to prepare their proposals.

This meeting will be held at the INAF-Osservatorio di Radioastronomia, Bologna, on the 11-12th of April.

We will present short tutorials on the ALMA Observing Tool and proposal preparation during this meeting. Most of the time will be dedicated to the interaction of the participants with the ARC staff to get support in preparing their own proposals for ALMA Cycle 4.

Participants are invited to bring their own laptops to better participate in the interactive sessions and to directly work on proposal preparation. On request, few computers could be made available by the LOC.

Please notice that this activity is in addition to the usual “face-to-face” support that everybody can request at any time to the Italian ARC node via e-mail to help-desk@alma.inaf.it, or through the ALMA help-desk (register and access via the link “Helpdesk” on the ALMA Science Portal).
