The Roman Science Centers at the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) and Caltech’s Infrared Processing & Analysis Center (IPAC) are excited to announce the return of the Ready, Set, Roman! Training Series (RSRTS) —a hands-on set of webinars designed to prepare the community for Roman. Whether you’re brand new to Roman or are already involved, the RSRTS is your chance to get connected and get ready for Roman. We have previously hosted 12 webinars for the community.
With Roman now launched and halfway through commissioning, we are restarting our training sessions in anticipation of the release of commissioning data, the beginning of science operations, and the Cycle 2 Call for Proposals. The RSRTS will help you build the knowledge and skills needed to make the most of Roman’s Core Community Surveys (CCS) and General Astrophysics Surveys (GAS) with the Wide Field Instrument (WFI).
Please join us for our next webinar (#13) on Tuesday 17 November at 1p Eastern (10a Pacific) on “New GAS PI-Led Programs for Cycle 1.” This webinar will re-introduce the Training Series and introduce the five new GAS PI-led programs selected in Cycle 1 , which will all be publicly available with no proprietary period.
Each training session will last one hour and consist of a short presentation (~20-25 minutes) with plenty of time for Q&A with Roman staff. Webinars will cover topics such as understanding data products and data releases, using the Roman Research Nexus, accessing and analyzing real data, the current status of WFI calibration and lessons learned from commissioning, and preparing for the Cycle 2 Call for Proposals.
For our next Webinar (#13), our agenda will include:
