[ASA] ALMA Cycle 3 Call for Proposals Released

[Jill.Rathborne at csiro.au]

The North American ALMA Science Center (NAASC) at the National Radio
Astronomy Observatory is pleased to announce that the Joint ALMA
Observatory has released the Cycle 3 ALMA Call for Proposals, which may be
found on the ALMA Science Portal:

      https://almascience.nrao.edu/proposing/call-for-proposals

ALMA capabilities added for Cycle 3 include Band 10, and baselines up to
10 km for Bands 3, 4, and 6.

With Cycle 3, ALMA enters into a new phase, where investigator-driven
science observations dominate activities while continued improvements and
developments are also explored. The available observing modes include
standard and non-standard modes. Standard observing modes are those that
have been used in previous Cycles and for which the data can be reduced by
the pipeline. Data taken in standard observing modes will be
pipeline-calibrated and imaged. Their quality is assured by ALMA staff and
will meet the standards set by the Observatory. Non-standard modes are
observing modes that are less well characterized, or for which the data
need to be processed by ALMA staff.

The Cycle 3 proposal submission deadline is 15:00 UT on Thursday, 23 April
2015.

We encourage you to take advantage of the resources of the NAASC, which
include personalized proposal preparation support through the ALMA
Helpdesk at:

      https://help.almascience.org

and the opportunity to visit the NAASC for one-on-one assistance.
