Proposal Submission to IRAM Telescopes

The next deadline for submission of observing proposals on IRAM telescopes, both the interferometer and the 30m, is

February 28th, 2002 16:00h (MET).


The scheduling period extends from May 15, 2002 to Nov 15, 2002, covering roughly the summer period at our observatories.

Given the success of the web-based submission facility, we strongly suggest to use this medium. Instructions are found on our web page

http://iram.fr/submission/submission.html


The submission facility will be opened about three weeks before the proposal deadline.

As an insurance against network congestion or failure, we still accept proposals submitted by

Proposals sent by ordinary e-mail are not accepted. Proposals containing grey scale plots should exclusively be submitted through the web facility in order to avoid deterioration of image quality in the copying. Color plots will be printed/copied in grey scale. If the proposers want their color plots to be passed on to the program committee, the entire proposal must be sent in by ordinary mail in 12 copies.

Soon after the deadline the IRAM Scientific Secretariat sends an acknowledgement of reception to the Principal Investigator of each proposal correctly received, together with the proposal registration number. To avoid the allocation of several numbers per proposal, send only one copy of your proposal. Note that the web facility allows cancellation and modification of proposals before the deadline. Should we notice formal problems with a proposal sufficiently before the deadline, we will make an effort to contact the principal investigator and solve the problem together.
