Notice of Intent to propose an SAO Large Scale Project or ASIAA Key Project
The SMA is currently running two SAO Large Scale programs which
will be ongoing for several semesters. At this time we will not be
accepting further SAO Large Scale proposals for the 2025A
semester. Please contact the TAC Chair if you have questions.
ASIAA is currently running two Key Projects and will not be accepting
proposals for Key Projects in 2025A.
For consideration in a given cycle, this notice is required ahead of
full submission, in advance of the deadline for regular proposals for
that semester, as part of our preparation for the process of reviewing
large scale project proposals (more information
is here).
Notices of Intent submitted here are for our informational purposes
only and are not considered binding. If you are even considering
proposing a large scale project, please submit this Notice. You are
under no obligation to then submit a full proposal.
The project description in the NoI
must include a brief scientific justification, an estimate of the time and
observing conditions required to perform the observations and the rationale
for the use of the SMA as opposed to another facility. The list of expected
Co-I's is needed to avoid conflicts of interest in seeking outside expert
reviewers if necessary.
Questions may be sent to sma [hyphen] largescale [at] cfa [dot] harvard [dot] edu.
You will have the opportunity to review your information before making your submission final.
