There is an open call for applications to the conference “Resolving the Extragalactic Universe with ALMA” to be held November 9-13, 2020, focused on the latest scientific results on the high-redshift universe with the ALMA telescope. The primary scientific themes are: • High-z galaxies and quasars, the epoch of reionization. • High-spatial resolution studies: Galaxy […]
from 1 October 2019 onwards By popular demand, the EU ARC has implemented a service which permits ALMA users to request the calibrated data for a given dataset (Member Obs Unit Set, MOUS) to be made available for download. The service is open both for ALMA PIs or Delegees with proprietary ALMA data and for […]

Prior to the deadline for the ALMA Cycle 7 proposal submission (April 17th), Allegro will host a Proposal Preparation Day. Bring in your proposals and we will assist you with the technical aspects and help you in exploring their feasibility, while you work on it during that day. Allegro staff will be there to provide […]
Including the powerful ALMA into an array of telescopes for the first time, astronomers have found that the emission from the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) at the center of our Galaxy comes from a smaller region than previously thought. This may indicate that a radio jet from Sgr A* is pointed almost […]
From now on, with all ALMA data delivery that you receive, you have the possibility to request its calibrated measurement set (MS). This has to be done within a week of the data delivery date via the ALMA HelpDesk. For data that has already been delivered, Allegro can generate the MS for you, for this […]
