The call for observing proposals with the European VLBI Network (EVN) is now open - non-expert teams are especially welcome! Highlights: 4 Gbps recording is becoming the default for continuum projects Regular (non-triggered) e-VLBI projects are very welcome (limited to 2 Gbps)! MeerKAT will be available for EVN observations on a best-effort basis starting session 1/2026. A tied-array beam and the local interferometer data [...]
Transnational access to MAGIC is provided to selected user-groups of one or more researchers, with the majority of the users working in EU and/or Associated Countries AND NOT AFFILIATED WITH SPANISH INSTITUTES. The access includes the logistical, technological and scientific support and the specific training. Additionally financial support for travel and accommodation could be offered [...]
e-MERLIN Invitation for Proposals: Cycle-21 Deadline for Receipt of Proposals: 13:59:59 UT on 23rd October 2025 e-MERLIN requests proposals from the international astronomical community for observations to be made during Cycle-21. Proposals are competitively peer-reviewed under standard STFC rules by the e-MERLIN Time Allocation Committee. Allocation will be made on the basis of scientific merit and technical feasibility alone. Full Details here, see https://www.e-merlin.ac.uk/tools/e-MERLIN_Cycle_21_CfP.pdf for [...]
The second Transnational Access (TNA) call of the ACME project is now open! This program supports research visits to European institutes offering training and expert guidance in multi-messenger astronomy — from gravitational waves and neutrinos to cosmic rays and photons across the electromagnetic spectrum. Who can apply? PhD students, postdocs, and staff scientists from universities [...]
The call for observing proposals with the European VLBI Network (EVN) is now open - non-expert teams are especially welcome! New: MeerKAT will be available for EVN observations on a best-effort basis starting session 1/2026. A tied-array beam and the local interferometer data may be requested. Proposals should clearly describe the added value of MeerKAT data to achieve the science goals [...]
