This comes from the Scott et. Mark Holdaway should know about this number. ALMA Science Meeting I will update everyone on the status of this event. Estimate about 120-130 registered attendees. Auditorium holds 400.
Progress is slow owing to a lack of suitable simulation software.
Pending resolution of the problem of a lack of suitable simulation software, I propose that a table of target total power sensitivities be made similar to that which we have for interferometric sensitivities. For specificity, I propose that these be made for a 5' x 5' region at all bands under median atmospheric conditions. Given the desire to achieve up to 10 kHz frequency resolution in the test correlator, Ray has re-examined the difficulty of providing various modes and concluded that the following are feasibly without excessive effort. However, he asks that we choose wisely and minimize the number of modes which actually needs to be written. This is a total of 15 modes.
