Notes on the hands-on sessions

Hand-on sessions will use ALMA Science Verification data which we will make available for download in January.

You will need a reasonably powerful laptop (Linux or Mac OSX 10.6 or 10.7) with at least 150 GB empty disk space.

You should install CASA on that laptop before the workshop. Please see the CASA download page for how to do that.

If you are having problems with CASA installation (which is unusual), please contact us before the workshop and we can find a solution.

What you can do to prepare for the workshop

Read in the CASA user reference and cookbook.

Go through at least one of the ALMA Guides for CASA.
