NRAO Community Days - IRyA-UNAM Morelia 2023

NRAO Community Day at MIT Haystack

 

The National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) together with the NAASC cordially invite you to an NRAO Community Day at the Institute of Radio Astronomy and Astrophysics (IRyA UNAM) in Morelia, Mexico on September 28 and 29, 2023. This event is designed for all astronomers, and in particular for those who do not regularly utilize radio data in their research. The workshop will provide an overview of NRAO instruments (VLA, ALMA) including new capabilities, a discussion of data reduction, pipelines, including aspects of polarimetry and self-calibration. The second day will also include hands-on tutorials for ALMA and VLA data reduction and imaging. This community day will be preceded by the First Mexican meeting en route to the Next Generation Very Large Array.

For more information either contact Frank Schinzel (fschinze_at_nrao.edu) for NRAO related inquiries or the LOC for logistics questions (radioworkshops_at_irya.unam.mx).

The event has reached capacity and registration is closed at this time.

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.
