You may have already learned through other means,
still let me share it here.
The call for proposals in MAGIC is open. Although
MAGIC is not an open observatory, the MAGIC collaboration
encourages individual external scientists to propose
observations to be performed with the MAGIC telescopes.
Observation time will be granted by the Time Allocation
Committee based on scientific merit.
The observation cycle 16 spans from 2021 January 25th to 2022
January 23rd.
The deadline to submit the MAGIC
proposals is October 23rd at 23:00 CET. In any case, we
encourage external scientists to contact the MAGIC physics
coordinator (
antonio.stamerra@inaf.it),
preferably before October 2nd.
The analysis of the data requires specific expertise and tools.
Some members from the MAGIC team will be supporting the external
projects throughout the entire procedure of proposal submission,
and (if the observation time is granted) data reduction and
publication.
Additional details, instructions, documentation, and the tools
required to prepare and submit proposals are available via:
