23 Cycle 3 Observing Capabilities and Policies Cycle 3 begins 1 October. Cycle 3 is no longer Best Efforts for standard proposals New category: Non-standard = Bands 8, 9 10 or baselines > 2.5 km With Cycle 3, ALMA begins a 12 month proposal cycle Supplement to C (filler) projects: low frequency and under-subscribed LST ranges Capabilities for Cycle 3 (new / extended capabilities marked in red): At least thirty-six 12-m antennas in the main array, and ten 7-m antennas and two 12-m antennas (for single-dish maps) in the ACA. Receiver bands 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, & 10 (wavelengths of about 3.1, 2.1, 1.3, 0.87, 0.74, 0.44, and 0.35 mm, respectively). Baselines up to 2 km for Bands 8, 9 and 10. Baselines up to 5 km for Band 7. Baselines up to 10 km for Bands 3, 4, & 6. Both single field interferometry and mosaics. Spectral-line observations with all Arrays and continuum observations with the 12-m Array and the 7-m Array. TP Array use is limited to spectral line observations in Bands 3 to 8. Polarization (on-axis, continuum in Band 3, 6 and 7, no spectral line, no ACA, no mosaics, no circular polarization). Mixed correlator modes (both high and low frequency resolution in the same observation). The maximum observing time per proposal, as estimated by the OT, is 100 hours. 23 ANASAC Meeting May 20, 2015

24 Proposal Submission for Cycle Proposal codes were assigned by the deadline on April 23, 2015 from around the world 24 ANASAC Meeting May 20, 2015

25 Helpdesk Support More complete coverage in week up to deadline 365 Eckets in total (178=49% for NA) 25 ANASAC Meeting May 20,

26 Cycle 3 Proposal Submission 1582 unique proposals (+14%) requeseng 9037 hrs on the 12- m Array 5.7 hrs per proposal OversubscripEon by hours = % / 24% hrs requested standard / non- standard 1122 individual PIs and 3608 PI+Co- Is from 47 countries 26 ANASAC Meeting May 20, 2015

27 Cycle 3 Proposal StaEsEcs 27 ANASAC Meeting May 20, 2015

28 Proposal Process Future improvements Improvements to KB articles, including graphics Revision of Primer and Did You Know flyer to include updated and more accessible example observations Videos to explain some of the more complex setups More information on use of simulators with more examples! Starting the Cycle 4 planning earlier in the cycle if the data reduction schedule allows 28 ANASAC Meeting May 20, 2015
