Special Notes for 98A Applicants

The deadline for ALL applications for semester 98A (February 1st 1998 through July 31st 1998) is 30th September 1997. All applications must arrive at their appropriate collection point by September 30th. These will be processed for the ITAC meeting to be held with the other PATT facilities in early December.

The Latex template application form can be downloaded from the JCMT homepage on the Web. An explanation of how to classify applications into UK, Canadian, Netherlands or International, the correct number of copies required, and the correct addresses of the collecting points can also be found on the Web. Electronic submissions will be most welcome in the case of Netherlands and Canadian applications. These electronic applications should be sent to their national collection point. This facility is not yet available for UK. International applications may be submitted electronically to the JAC beginning with this semester.. Please read here for further details.

INSTRUMENTS AVAILABLE

The current status of RxA2, RxB3, RxC2 and SCUBA can be found on the Web. These instruments will be available throughout the semester.

RxW is scheduled to be commissioned on the telescope in December. This is too late to be able to provide any parameters prior to the ITAC meeting and therefore applications should not request RxW. More specifically, any C-band applications allocated time for RxC2 will automatically be given RxW time should the C-band commissioning proceed successfully. There cannot be any D-band requests for semester 98A.

It is anticipated that there will be an SBI run around May 1998. Applications should be sent in as normal by the appropriate JCMT and CSO deadlines. The instruments available will be only RxA2, RxB3 and RxC2, not RxW.
