ALMA Proposals Due on 23 April 15:00 UTC
ALMA proposals for Cycle 13 are due in two days on Thursday, 23 April, at 15:00 UTC. As a reminder, Cycle 13 will be the first cycle to offer Band 2 observations. The new web-based Observing Tool for proposal preparation can be accessed from this link, and the configuration schedule is available at this link. If you would like help with proposal preparation, please contact the UK ARC Node for assistance.
Updates about the Web-Based Observing Tool
During last week, the new web-based Observing Tool was updated to improve its performance. Additionally, some users are currently reporting issues with using the Observing Tool in Safari, in which case, the current recommendation is to try an alternate browser such as Firefox or Chrome. Users who encounter any problems with the Observing Tool should contact the Helpdesk for emergency support.
