IRAM Program Committee Recommendations The IRAM program committee convened in Grenoble on October 14 and 15 to discuss the proposals submitted for the winter 2004/2005 scheduling period . The committee was chaired by Mario Tafalla (Observatorio de Madrid). The principal investigators of each proposal will be informed by letter which will include comments issued by the committee if there are any.
Plateau de Bure Interferometer ProposalsFor projects
rated A and B and without IRAM internal collaborator, please consult the
list of local contacts.
A: Accepted, B: Backup, C: Rejected
135 proposals
were received for the 30m telescope, requesting 4471 hours of telescope
time. The highest rating "A" was given to 28 proposals ; 71 proposals
were rated "B", i.e. were given backup status. The remaining
proposals, although scientifically valuable in most cases, were rated
"C". The individual ratings are listed in the attached table.
All A-rated proposals will be scheduled on the telescope, although some
with less time than requested. We expect that about half of the B-rated
programs will actually be scheduled. The selection will take into account
scientific merit, crowding in certain right ascension ranges, and general
aspects of balance. Proposals rated "C'' will not get telescope time.
The principal investigators of each proposal will also be informed by letter which will include comments issued by the committee if there are any.
In addition
to the 135 proposals submitted to the 30m telescope there were 6 interferometer
proposals (247-04 - 252-04) requesting 30m time, mainly for the measurement
of zero spacings. Naturally, the 30m part of these proposals received the
same rating as the corresponding interferometer proposal, and no separate
notification will be sent.
