The U.S. National Science Foundation National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NSF NRAO) and the University of Florida (UF) have announced a dynamic new partnership to advance science education and public outreach at a future Next Generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) antenna site in Florida.
Thanks to newly developed advanced imaging techniques, exoALMA, which uses the powerful Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), has revealed the most exquisite images of young solar systems, never before seen by astronomers.
A team of astronomers has used archived ALMA observations to identify for the first time the characteristic radio recombination lines associated with shells of ionized gas surrounding Solar System-sized proplyd disks in the Orion Nebula Cluster, at a distance of 1000 light-years from Earth.
In its role, AUI will provide IMCA members support in staffing, operations, development, representation, maintenance, safety, reporting and compliance. IMCA-CAT is a state-of-the-art research facility for pharmaceutical structure-based drug design.
