Essential Radio Astronomy |
Essential Radio Astronomy (ERA) is a one-semester course available on-line that is intended for astronomy graduate students and advanced undergraduates with backgrounds in astronomy, physics, or engineering. The goal of ERA is to foster the community of researchers using radio astronomy by attracting and training the most talented university students. | |
