CASA Users Committee

• CASA Users Committee Terms of Reference

Current Committee Membership

• Ximena Fernández (NA): NSF Postdoctoral Fellow at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey; frequent user of the VLA observing HI in galaxies across cosmic time. Email: ximena@physicsnospam.example.rutgers.edu
• Rachel Friesen (NA): Dunlap Fellow at the Dunlap Institute for Astronomy & Astrophysics at the University of Toronto; Early stages of star formation, structure and composition of dense gas in star forming molecular clouds through observations at multiple single-dish and interferometer telescope facilities. Email: friesen@dunlapnospam.example.utoronto.ca
• Daniel C. Jacobs (NA): Arizona State University; Observing Reionization and Dark Ages with 21cm line; CASA Background: I use CASA to commission new radio arrays like the Precision Array for Probing the Epoch of Reionization (PAPER), the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) and the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA). We are developing new algorithms and pipelines to address challenges posed by these novel widefield, large N arrays. My focus on the committee is to represent the community of users who want to use CASA in new and interesting ways. Email: jacobsda@sasnospam.example.upenn.edu
• Alexander Karim (EU): Staff member for observational cosmology at the Argelander-Institute for Astronomy (Bonn University, Germany); frequent user of sub-mm/radio interferometry incl. ALMA and the VLA (incl. large programs using full-band spectral scans and large-area continuum mosaics). Email : karim@astronospam.example.uni-bonn.de
• David Wilner (NA): Astrophysicist (Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Cambridge, MA USA); radio/millimeter/submillimeter observations of star and planet formation. Email: dwilner@cfanospam.example.harvard.edu
