ERIS will provide a week of lectures and hands-on tutorials on how to get scientific results from radio interferometry. Topics covered include:
* Choosing the right instrument, configuration and observing plan for your project
* Calibration and imaging continuum, spectral line and polarization data
* Extracting and interpreting measurements
* Example data drawn from observations of Galactic and extragalactic sources, the Sun, transient and variable objects.
Students will be helped to use their own laptops to install and use the most widely-used packages such as AIPS, CASA and Parseltongue. Most examples will be drawn from cm-wave instruments such as MERLIN and the EVN but experts will be available on arrays from LOFAR to ALMA.
Limited financial support is available from RadioNet.
