- What do the time estimates in the summary PDF page generated by the OT refer to and how are they calculated?
- My project requires good uv-coverage. How should I set up my Science Goal?
- How do I specify time constraints in my proposal?
- How do I load a list of sources or pointings into the OT?
- Can I request monitoring observations with standalone ACA?
- 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?
- To which category should I submit a proposal on distant galaxies: "cosmology/high-z" or "Galaxies/Nuclei"?
- 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 should I do if scriptForPI aborts at the importasdm step with error?
- Why do my data products not include all sources/spectral windows/channels for my project?
- On OSX, why is CASA crashing with references to packages that are installed externally to CASA?
- How do I handle the visibility flagging issues potentially present in the ALMA datasets delivered to PIs up to November 2014?
- Why can't I specify that my source should be unresolved in the OT?
- How does CASA calculate the visibility weights?
- How do the results of the CASA hanningsmooth task compare with the online Hanning smoothing done by the ALMA correlator?
- CASA Viewer Spectral Profile Tool does not offer moment type selection
- Why does scriptForPI.py crash with NameError: name 'hif_restoredata' is not defined ?
- How do I recreate Pipeline-calibrated Total Power Data?
- How do I deal with targets with unspecified coordinates in the OT?
- How do I model the ALMA primary beam, and how can I use that model to obtain the sensitivity profile for an image mosaic?
- I'm a little bit confused about Tsys as it is defined in the ALMA Sensitivity Calculator document. Could you please explain to me in greater detail how Tsys is calculated for ALMA?
- How long can I observe the Sun continuously?
- For solar observations, what happens if my target structure is not present or my target phenomenon does not occur during observation?
- 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?
- How can I get a full list of everything ALMA has observed?
