Technical & Science Documents
A white paper by Chris Carilli (NRAO) et al. introduces the next generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) concept and summarizes the initial design and priority science goals.
Over the past year, the astronomical community has been considering a range of compelling science goals that can only be enabled by a ngVLA. These science goals are described in a series of white papers published in the ngVLA memo series:
- Andrea Isella (Rice) et al., 2015, The Cradle of Life
- Adam K. Leroy (Ohio State) et al., 2015, "Galaxy Ecosystems": The Matter Cycle In and Around Galaxies
- Caitlin M. Casey (Texas) et al., 2015, Galaxy Assembly through Cosmic Time
- Geoffrey C. Bower (ASIAA) et al., 2015, Time Domain, Fundamental Physics, and Cosmology
These white papers will be expanded with new ideas & more detailed analyses as the project progresses.
