Call for Observing Proposals for 2007B


    CALL FOR PROPOSALS for UAO (MMT, 90", 61", 60", 40", VATT) for second trimester, May1-"Aug1", 2007 and MAGELLAN 2007B, approx July1-Dec 31, 2007.

    Proposals for these telescopes are due Monday March 5, at noon, with Laura in Peter Strittmatter's office. Submit 10 hard copies.

    Please note that Summer Shutdown occurs approximately Aug1-Sept1 for our Tucson-Area telescopes, thus the trimester is really only May, June, July.

    Proposal forms can be found at http://james.as.arizona.edu/~psmith/proposals/forms.html Everyone needs to get these particular versions; older versions will not do. We do not support non-latex versions.

    Useful information about P.I. instruments and required signatures, and some additional information about facility instruments, and information on certification, can be found at: http://adansonia.as.arizona.edu/~edo/2007B I will update this document as necessary between now and Mar 5.

    I have previously sent information to ASU, NAU, Virginia, Minnesota, Carthage, and Montreal about how to submit proposals this time. Those of you at LPL, ASU, NAU, Virginia, Minnesota, Carthage, and Montreal, please circulate to your all-department mail exploders.
