CFIS Collaboration Meeting 2017

12 juin 2017, 14:00 → 14 juin 2017, 18:00 Europe/Paris

Salle des séminaires (sous-sol) (IAP, Paris, France)

The CFIS started collected u&r-bands photons in February 2017, and is already rich of two years worth of u-band data from the precursor Luau 2015-6 large program (nearly 2,500 square degrees covered). This first meeting of the CFIS Collaboration aims at kickstarting discussions on the many exciting scientific programs to come within our group, as well as the possible scientific collaborations with other on-going and future photometric and spectroscopic large surveys in the northern hemisphere. The meeting will last two days, with an extra afternoon booked for potential splinters.
