THE SCHOOL
The tenth edition of the European Radio Interferometry School, ERIS2024, will be held in Granada, Spain, from Monday September 30th to Friday October 4th, 2024. ERIS will provide a week of lectures and tutorials on how to achieve scientific results from radio interferometry. The school is co-organised by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA-CSIC) and JIVE - Joint Institute for VLBI ERIC. This school is sponsored by the OPTICON-RadioNET Pilot project and the Severo Ochoa training program of the IAA-CSIC.
SCHOOL AIMS AND CONTENT
ERIS aims to provide a complete overview of radio interferometry covering fundamentals, data processing, and analysis techniques, along with practical hands-on sessions. The following topics will be covered in the lectures and tutorials:
-
Calibration and imaging of interferometry data (continuum, spectral line, and polarization)
-
Observational techniques using various arrays (e.g., LOFAR, e-MERLIN, EVN/VLBI, ALMA & NOEMA)
-
Strategies for observation planning and proposal writing
Participants are expected to bring their own laptops, equipped with a recent CASA installation (version 6). Examples and tutorials will focus on instruments operating at m-, cm-, and mm-wave frequencies such as LOFAR, the JVLA, the EVN, e-MERLIN, and ALMA.
