ALMA Cycle 2 Call for Proposals

It is anticipated that about 2000 hours of time on the 12-metre array and the Atacama Compact Array will be available for Cycle 2 projects and high priority projects transferred from Cycle 1. A list of the metadata from Cycle 1 proposals designated for transfer into Cycle 2 has been posted, so that Cycle 2 Principal Investigators can avoid duplicating these observations. A Cycle 2 Observing Tool (OT) update was released on 18 November and all users should install this update.
The ALMA Cycle 2 proposal submission deadline is 15:00 UT on 5 December 2013. European users are encouraged to seek for help at their local node; please check the European ALMA Regional Centre (ARC).
