- Can I make a polarization observation in Cycle 2?
- Can I make a single dish observation in Cycle 2?
- Can I observe continuum emission using ACA in Cycle 2?
- Can I request band cycling in Cycle 2?
- Can I specify the date on which my observations should be taken or set up a monitoring observation in Cycle 2?
- What do I do if I can't get the OT to work?
- In the OT, how do I setup an observation with 3 spectral windows in one sideband and 1 in the other.
- What is the procedure in sorting the Spectral Line Picker results by column?
- What should I include for the content of the Technical Justification and in what format should I submit it?
- What are the restrictions on multiple spectral setups within a single science goal?
- I've downloaded the ALMA Proposal Template (LaTeX format). How do I convert it to letter size?
- May I submit an identical proposal to more than one category, e.g. submitting a proposal on distant galaxies both to cosmology and to galaxy categories?
- What should I do if I have an issue with my proposal assessment?
- May I make changes to my project after the proposal review process?
- What is the meaning of the code of an ALMA proposal?
- How can I tell from the scripts provided as part of the Cycle 0 data products which version of CASA was used?
- Are there significant differences between versions of CASA after CASA 3.3 that make them incompatible?
- If my data were calibrated and imaged in CASA 3.3 and I want to redo it, are there resources to help?
- How can I update Cycle 0 absolute fluxes to the Butler-JPL-Horizons 2012 model standards?
- Will re-reduction improve the Cycle 0 data products provided by the archive?
- How can I improve the speed of my data download from the archive?
- Where can I find the ALMA Science Verification targets and observing parameters?
- Where can I see a list of projects or targets that were observed by ALMA on a given date?
- How can I query the calibrator database that ALMA uses?
- As PI of an ALMA proposal, how can I give others access to the data during the proprietary period?
- How can I analyze ACA and TP data and combine with 12-m data?
- Are there particular advantages to using CASA 3.4 or later for ALMA Cycle 0 data?
- How can I correct for improperly flagged shadowed data in CASA 3.4 ?
- How can I calculate the spectral coverage of my SPWs in different frequency reference frames?
- How do I specify antenna locations in simobserve?
- What should I include for the content of the Technical Justification and in what format should I submit it?
- Where can I find a listing of all the observed (or yet to be observed) sources/targets?
- Where can I find the online ALMA observing simulator developed by the University of Manchester?
- Do I need to specify calibrators for my observation? What are the defaults for Observatory-defined calibration?
- To which category should I submit a proposal on distant galaxies: "cosmology/high-z" or "Galaxies/Nuclei"?
- What translations will be available for user documentation from ALMA?
- I can't seem to register in the Science Portal! What could be the problem?
- How do I track the observational progress of my project?
- Where can I see a list of projects or targets that were observed by ALMA on a given date?
- How can I receive email notification of activity on my ALMA proposals?
- What bands, frequencies, or wavelengths are available in Cycle 0?
- My Cycle 0 data were delivered, but do not reach the (sensitivity) requirements requested in the proposal. Can the observations be put back in the queue?
- When is the Cycle 0 proposal deadline and observing period?
- Can I submit a Cycle 0 Proposal Even Though I did Not Submit a Notice of Intent?
- Where can I find the configuration files for ALMA Early Science in Cycle 0?
