Observing Proposal Deadline Extended to 7 April 2020 at 23:59 MST

As described in the call for proposals from NSF’s OIR Lab, observing time in the 2020B semester is available at Gemini, CTIO (including SOAR and SMARTS), KPNO (including WIYN), the automated global telescope network of Las Cumbres Observatory, the CHARA interferometer, as well as the Subaru and AAT telescopes through time-exchange agreements.

Observing resources available through the NN-EXPLORE program for exoplanet research include the WIYN 3.5m telescope, the CTIO/SMARTS 1.5m telescope with the CHIRON precision radial-velocity spectrometer, as well as 300 hours on the MINERVA-Australis exoplanet observatory, which is operated by the University of Southern Queensland. WIYN’s new precision radial-velocity spectrograph, NEID, is available on the 3.5m in shared-risk mode.

The revised 7 April deadline applies to all OIR Lab Standard and Survey proposals, as well as Gemini LLP proposals. Questions about the proposal process may be directed to the Time Allocation Committee chair, Verne Smith (vsmith@noao.edu).
