Be sure to let
Action Item from last week: David will Webex review pricing structures for our needs
Tutorials (Carol)
Main items
Science examples: decide what Cycle1 capabilities to illustrate, and writing assignments
Cycle0 examples were:
submm galaxies: B7 continuum and B3 CO search
mapping lensed high z galaxy: B7 line and B9 continuum
molecular absorption line at z=0.9: B3 HCN, HNC, HCO+, HOC+, CS, HC_3N
GRB afterglow: B3,6,7 continuum monitoring. SV data is only a single datum.
imaging CO in nearby starburst: NGC 3256 B6. Can now use SV data
chemistry in massive core: B6, 9
continuum survey of protostellar disks: B3,6,7,9. Can substitute TW Hya
Gerald - not given any thought.
Assign to Scott? Adam recommends borrowing heavily from Meredith's talk
continuum & CO J=3-2 from Pluto-Charon: B7 line and continuum, B9 continuum
Al - can provide Band 6, possibly Band 7 to Gerald
