An ALMA Data Processing Workshop in Lisbon
Published: 22 Oct 2017
The huge increase of the data available on the archive has improved enormously the possibility for the scientific community to exploit the potential of this fantastic instrument. However, there are still many issues related to the non friendly nature of interferometric data, which need different processes to be transformed in scientifically useful data.
The goal of this workshop, open to all the European Community, is to bring together all the researchers which are planning to use ALMA data and put them together on an hands on session. We will guide the audience from the raw data towards scientifically exploitable data in 2 and half days of intense work.
The program together with logistic details are available in the website: http://www.iastro.pt/research/conferences/alma2017/. We also inform the participants that fellowships are available for a small number of students, covering the travel and the accommodation.
