SKA2010 - International SKA Science and Engineering Meeting |
22/03/2010 (All day) |
25/03/2010 (All day) |
The international SKA project will hold a science and engineering
meeting from 22-25 March 2010 at the headquarters of the SKA Program
Development Office, at the University of Manchester, UK. This meeting
is intended to be in the spirit of previous SKA science and engineering
meetings, which were influential in shaping the direction of the SKA.
However, now that the SKA has entered the system design phase, this
meeting will have a greater focus on system and engineering decisions,
and their impact on the scientific observations to be conducted by the
SKA. |

Galactic Science with early ALMA and CASA tutorial |
29/03/2010 (All day) |
01/04/2010 (All day) |
The first meeting will look at ALMA's potential for research into
star formation, stellar evolution, astrochemistry, the Galactic centre
and other phemomena of the Milky Way and nearby galaxies. We invite
talks on recent progress leading to questions which can be addressed
using ALMA observations, including Early Science with a subset of array
capabilities.
Followed by a two-day workshop providing a hands-on introduction to the CASA data
reduction package, which will be used for ALMA and other radio
interferometry data. |

Workshop "Astronomy in Megastructures", Crete (GR) |
10/05/2010 (All day) |
14/05/2010 (All day) |
A new era is dawning in Astronomy with the advent of extremely
sensitive new facilities to probe the universe across the
electromagnetic spectrum. We plan to bring together the radio and
optical communities for a workshop in Crete in May 2010.
The workshop will be aimed at developing linked science cases for the
giant, next generation telescopes including the E-ELT and SKA and other
key ground- and space-based facilities. |

Molecules in Galaxies |
26/07/2010 (All day) |
30/07/2010 (All day) |
The conference "Molecules in Galaxies", to be held in Oxford, UK, 26-30 July 2010, will tackle many of the contemporary questions surrounding the molecular gas content of galaxies. In particular, it will allow to review the state of the field as the Atacama Large Millimeter/Sub-Millimeter Array (ALMA) starts operation, and thus carefully plan its exploitation.

7th IRAM mm‑interferometry school |
04/10/2010 (All day) |
08/10/2010 (All day) |
IRAM will organize this year its 7th millimeter-interferometry school.
These schools are organized every two years since 1998. The 7th school
will take place at the IRAM headquarters (Grenoble, France) on October 4
- 8th, 2010. It is intended for PhD students, post-docs and scientists
who want to acquire a good knowledge of interferometry and data
reduction techniques at millimeter wavelengths. |

"Observing with ALMA: Early Science" workshop |
29/11/2010 (All day) |
01/12/2010 (All day) |
The IRAM node of the European ALMA Regional Center will organize a
practical workshop on how to plan and analyze ALMA Early Science
observations.
ALMA is currently in construction and should start full operations in
2013. However, already in 2011, ALMA will be operated with a limited
number of antennas (16) and capacities (e.g. baselines < 1.5 km). The
first Call for Proposals for this “ALMA Early Science” phase could be
issued as early as the end of 2010, with a deadline in the first
semester of 2011. To help the IRAM community to prepare this important
milestone, the IRAM ARC node will be organizing a 3-days workshop on
November 29th—December 1st 2010 at the institute’s headquarters
(Grenoble, France). |
