Classical Schedule : Semester 2006A (rev3) |
The table below summarises the classically-scheduled programs that have been awarded time on Gemini North and South. Jump directly to the schedule for:
Each program has been assigned a Gemini Contact Scientist (CS) who is the point of contact between the Observatory and the Principal Investigator. Instructions for Gemini North visiting observers and Gemini South visiting observers are available.
The columns in the table for Gemini
North are:
Date: Scheduled observing night(s).
Allocated programs: Gemini reference number (note that this is different from any
internal National TAC reference number) and Principal Investigator for scheduled program.
Click on the reference number to see the proposal abstract (if available).
Instrument: name of the instrument(s).
Title: the title of the program.
The assigned support staff (Gemini Contact Scientists and National Office staff) for each Gemini North ODB and Gemini South ODB program are listed in the interactive 'snapshots' of the Observing Database (ODB).
