As in previous semesters, we plan to pool the bolometer with other suitable proposals into a bolometer pool. HERA projects will be pooled with other less demanding project into a HERA pool. Both pools will be organized in several sessions, occupying a significant fraction of the totally available observing time. The proposals participating in the pools will be observed by IRAM staff, the PIs and Co-PIs of participating projects and other cooperating external astronomers. The pool observations will be organized by the pool coordinators, Stéphane Léon (bolometers) and Helmut Wiesemeyer (HERA). The participating proposals are grouped according to their demand on weather quality, and they get observed following the priorities assigned by the program committee. The organization of the bolometer and the HERA observing pools are described at ../IRAMES/mainWiki/PoolObserving.
Bolometer and heterodyne proposals which are particularly weather tolerant qualify as backup for the pools. Participation in the pools is voluntary, and the respective box on the proposal form should be checked.
Questions concerning the pool organization can be directed to the scheduler (thum@iram.fr) or the Pool Coordinators, Stéphane Léon (leon@iram.es) and Helmut Wiesemeyer (wiesemeyer@iram.es).
