Arecibo Observatory Call for Proposals

From: Christiano G. M. Brum (ASAC Chair) & Maria Womack (ASAC Co-Chair) (tbecker at swri.edu)

We invite proposals for the Arecibo 305-m telescope for the Thursday, Sep 3, 2020 (17:00 AST, 21:00 UTC) deadline. These requests should be for telescope/radar usage within the six-month (or in some cases one-year) period beginning January 1, 2021.

Important notices:
There will be no proposals accepted for Space and Atmospheric Sciences this term due to 430MHz transmitter upgrades.

Proposals should be prepared under the procedures detailed in our guidelines. Please note that these were substantially revised recently by the Arecibo Scheduling Advisory Committee (ASAC) following feedback from Arecibo Observatory Users' Committee (AOUC).

We regret that, due to Congressional restrictions on the use of NASA funds, we are unable to host on-site observers working for institutions in China. Observers from China are welcome to apply for time as remote or in-absentia observers, but should meet the criteria for these observing modes.

Proposals must be submitted using the Proposal Submission Tool.
Please email any questions about this call for proposals to Christiano Brum (cbrum at naic.edu) or Maria Womack (maria.womack at ucf.edu)
