3rd NLAP Workshop                            

Third NLAP Annual Meeting

Dear reader,

 

It is with great pleasure that we announce the third NLAP (Netherlands Low frequency radio Astronomy Platform) meeting to be held on the 27th of January at the Radboud University Nijmegen.

The purpose of these annual meetings is to keep each other updated on various projects and proposals on both technical and scientific aspects and we would like to encourage people from both science and industry to join.The aim for the NLAP is to become a truly European platform, we already have a number of international participants, but we welcome more people to join. The theme for this year's meeting, and the reason it is being held at the Radboud University Nijmegen, will be nano-sats and swarm technology and we would like to highlight both the science and the technical aspects of this theme. As last year, the organisation of the day is fairly open and we have only a limited number of fixed items/speakers on the agenda in order to keep the possibility for discussion. We plan to organise these discussion around certain thematic sessions and allow all participants to present their work, idea's or results. The preliminary agenda is listed below.

• 10:00-10:15 - Opening, collection of possible speakers/contributers

• 10:15-12:30 - Technical aspects and concept proposals

• 12:30-13:30 - Lunch

• 13:30-15:30 - Science  

• 15:30-16:30 - Future technical challenges and roadmaps
• 16:30-17:00 - Information session on proposals, projects etc.
