"Science with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array" Meeting Oct. 7 and 8

Two hundred astronomers from around the world will meet in Washington, DC on October 7 and 8 to discuss exciting new science to be done with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA). The conference will be held at the Carnegie Institution of Washington (CIW), 1530 P St. NW, and is sponsored by Associated Universities, Inc., which operates the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) for the National Science Foundation (NSF).

ALMA will study the structure of the early universe and the evolution of galaxies; gather crucial data on the formation of stars, protoplanetary disks, and planets; and provide new insights on the familiar objects of our own solar system. The array, expected to consist of 64 telescopes with 12-meter dish antennas, will be built at a high-altitude, extremely dry mountain site in Chile's Atacama desert in the next decade. (...)
