Announcing 8th Netherlands ALMA Science Day, Friday November 29, 10:30-16:30!

When: Friday November 29, 10:30-16:30
Where: Leiden Observatory, Gorlaeus Buidling room BE0.08, Einsteinweg 55, Leiden

Allegro is pleased to announce the 8th Netherlands ALMA Science Day, which will take place at Leiden Observatory in our new Gorlaeus building on Friday 29 November in room BE.0.08. We invite all members of the community to present the latest scientific results obtained with ALMA.

During the Science Day, we will have talks related to ALMA technical aspects, news, and outlook, focusing on the changes that the Wide-band Sensitivity Upgrade (WSU) will bring. We will discuss the resources that ALMA observers currently need (and anticipate needing), with a particular emphasis on Allegro’s role in supporting the community in the Netherlands.

Invited speakers include Serena Viti (Leiden; Results of the ALCHEMI Large Program) and Gergo Poppoing (ESO; Status of ALMA and ALMA2030 upgrade). There will also be a discussion session on Allegro’s current and future resources in support of the user community. And we will hear about the ALMA2040 ambitions and how you can contribute in shaping ALMA’s future.

We hope to see many of you at the Science Day!
