NAIC/NRAO Sixth School on Single Dish Radio Astronomy

本次会议/研讨会的主要目标是使研究生，博士后，早期职业科学家和天文学其他分支的专家了解单碟射电天文学及其应用的现有和新兴技术。讲习班的计划包括由该领域的专家进行的广泛的系列讲座和使用绿色银行和阿雷西博望远镜的实践经验。除了涵盖射电天文学和射电望远镜的基础知识外，学校还包括早期职业科学家非常感兴趣的主题，如提案写作，数据分析技术和未来仪器的讨论。申请的大部分资金将用于参与者支持，并将支付学生参加会议的差旅费。

The primary goal of this conference/workshop is to enable graduate students, postdocs, early career scientists, and experts in other branches of astronomy to learn about established and emerging techniques for single-dish radio astronomy and their applications. The workshop program consists of an extensive series of lectures given by experts in the field and hands-on experiences with the Green Bank and Arecibo telescopes. In addition to covering the fundamentals of radio astronomy and radio telescopes the school also encompasses topics of great interest to early career scientists such as proposal writing, data analysis techniques, and discussion of future instrumentation. The majority of the requested funding will go towards Participant Support and will cover travel costs for students to attend the meeting.
