Socorro Colloquium Schedule - Spring 2022

NRAO Socorro Friday Colloquium Schedule - Spring 2022

Colloquia and seminar talks are held in the auditorium of the Domenici Science Operations Center (DSOC) in Socorro, New Mexico. All are welcome in-person following current Covid protocols (vaccinated and boosted). Non-NRAO staff in-person attendees are required to register for each visit to DSOC under NRAO Socorro Event Registration through the NRAO-NM Visitor Registration form. Check-in with the receptionist on the day of the colloquium.

The talks generally assume a good grounding in research astronomy. Participation will also be available via zoom: https://go.nrao.edu/nm-colloq-zoom.

This semester colloquium and seminar talks are usually scheduled for 11am local time on Fridays; those which are not are indicated in green. With ongoing Covid uncertainties we expect a mix of in-person and virtual talks.

Connect with NRAO

The National Radio Astronomy Observatory and Green Bank Observatory are facilities of the U.S. National Science Foundation operated under cooperative agreement by Associated Universities, Inc.

Founded in 1956, the NRAO provides state-of-the-art radio telescope facilities for use by the international scientific community. NRAO telescopes are open to all astronomers regardless of institutional or national affiliation. Observing time on NRAO telescopes is available on a competitive basis to qualified scientists after evaluation of research proposals on the basis of scientific merit, the capability of the instruments to do the work, and the availability of the telescope during the requested time. NRAO also provides both formal and informal programs in education and public outreach for teachers, students, the general public, and the media.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency created by Congress in 1950 "to promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense..."

AUI collaborates with the scientific community and research sponsors to plan, build, and operate cutting-edge facilities. We cultivate excellence, deliver value, enhance education, and engage the public.
