ESO Public Spectroscopic Surveys with the ARO telescopes
ESO is offering the possibility of conducting Public Spectroscopic Surveys using the telescopes of the Arizona Radio Observatory as part of an agreement with the University of Arizona. Public Surveys are observing programmes for which proposers collect and make publicly available, within a defined time, a fully reduced and scientifically usable data set that is likely to answer a major scientific question and be of general use and of broad interest to the astronomical community.
The deadline for submitting Public Surveys proposals with the ESO ARO time is 17 April 2015.
Detailed information are available at this website.
