Proposers should be aware of constraints for data reduction:
- In view of the new receiver system, you are urged
to reduce your data in Grenoble. Proposers will not come for the
observations, but will have to come for the data reduction. For the time
being, remote data reduction will only be offered in exceptional cases.
Please contact your local
contact if you're interested in this possibility.
- We keep the data reduction schedule very flexible, but wish to
avoid the presence of more than 2 groups at the same time in
Grenoble. Data reduction will be carried out on dedicated computers at
IRAM. Please contact us in advance.
- In certain cases, proposers may have a look at the
uv-tables as the observations progress. If necessary, and upon
request, more information can be provided. Please contact your local contact
or PdBI's Science
Operations Group (sog@iram.fr) if you are interested in this.
- CLIC evolves to cope with upgrades of the PdBI
array. The newer versions are downward compatible with the previous
releases. Observers who wish to finish data reduction at their
home institute should obtain the most recent version of CLIC. Because
differences between CLIC versions may potentially result in imaging
errors if new data are reduced with an old package, we advise
observers having a copy of CLIC to take special care in maintaining it
up-to-date. The recent upgrades of CLIC implied many
modifications for which backward compatibility with old PdBI receiver data has
not yet been fully checked. To calibrate data obtained with the ``old''
receiver system (up to September 2006),
we thus urge you to use the January 2007 version of CLIC.
