Coverage: Large Program M20AL007: Transient Survey

This page gives information about one of the coverage maps which is used by the Clash Tool to check for matches with your target coordinates.

Description of Coverage Map

This coverage map is based on the large program “JCMT Transient Survey” (M16AL001 and M20AL007). Please see the program description for more information.

This program will be observing each of its 8 target fields with SCUBA-2 (850um and 450um) at regular intervals throughout the duration of the program. The primary focus of the project is to study protostar variability, but by repeating the monitoring observations it will also build up very deep imaging of the target fields.
