e-MERLIN/VLBI National Facility - Call for e-MERLIN proposals cycle-9 *********** e-MERLIN/VLBI National Facility **************** ******* CALL FOR e-MERLIN PROPOSALS - Cycle-9 ***** ***********http://www.e-merlin.ac.uk/observe.html ******** ************** DEADLINE : 26th June 2019  ****************** e-MERLIN requests proposals from the international astronomical  community for observations to be made during Cycle-9. Proposals are  competitively peer-reviewed under standard STFC rules by the PATT  e-MERLIN Time Allocation Committee. Allocation will be made on the  basis of scientific merit and technical feasibility alone. During  e-MERLIN operations ~50% of observing time has been allocated to large  legacy projects and the remaining formal time will be allocated via  PATT to standard proposals solicited prior to each observing semester. e-MERLIN Science: e-MERLIN observations address a broad range of  http://www.e-merlin.ac.uk/science.html and its unique combination of angular  resolution (mas) and sensitivity (microJy) provide crucial insights in multiple  science areas including:   • star-formation and black hole growth in galaxies; • the physical processes which govern the formation of stars; • the modes of activity in nearby galaxies; • transient radio sources; • Radio spectral lines (masers and in absorption); • The energetic processes in relativistic outflows from jets generated by black holes and compact objects; • Along with multiple other applications.   e-MERLIN provides high resolution (12-150mas) and high sensitivity  (microJy) imaging at cm wavelengths as well as polarimetry, spectroscopy  and astrometry. e-MERLIN is an SKA-pathfinder instrument providing  observations with resolutions and frequencies comparable to those that  will be provided by SKA1-mid.  *** Cycle-8 e-MERLIN Observations: Quarters 3 & 4 2019 ***                  Deadline for Receipt of Proposals                 - 23:59:59 UT on 26th June 2019                                                                              Ang. res.         Sensitivity L-band (1.23-1.74GHz) -     ~150mas    ~12uJy/bm* C-band (4.5 - 7.5GHz)   -     ~40mas      ~10uJybm*    K-band (19 - 25GHz)     -     ~12mas      ~20uJy/bm * Assumes inclusion of Lovell Telescope at L/C-band and  a full imaging track (~12hrs including calibration).   The full call for proposals, including technical specifications is  available at:  http://www.e-merlin.ac.uk/observe.html e-MERLIN is partially supported via theRadioNet Transnational  Access activity via the EU Horizon 2020 programme RadioNet.   This activity provides travel support for eligible e-MERLIN users.  For further information or contact e-MERLIN staff  (emerlin@jb.man.ac.uk).   EVN+e-MERLIN Observations: The full integration of e-MERLIN telescopes within the EVN is also  available for proposals. This mode of observations provides  'short-spacing'  (10-200km spacing) component to VLBI.  This allows imaging of wider range of spatial scales. Proposals  for  EVN+e-MERLIN observations should be made via the EVN-PC. The current Call for EVN Proposals (including combined e-MERLIN+EVN  observations is detailed at https://www.evlbi.org.  The deadline for EVN proposals is 1st June 2019 ************************************************************************* e-MERLIN/VLBI National Facility, The University of Manchester, Jodrell Bank Observatory, Macclesfield, Cheshire SK11 9DL, United Kingdom Email:emerlin@jb.man.ac.uk
