Beginner,
for now. |
General, as applies to testing CALDB data for approval. This could be
any type of analysis, but not at the deepest scientific level; more toward
verification/improvement on previous results.

No. Optical and radio. |
No, but I am starting employment to work on Chandra data reduction (FK Com) and analysis in early April. Your
workshop would be extremely valuable and well-timed for tdis. |

Yes. |
All kinds - I am presently working on CC mode data of pulsars and
faint extended emission from distant galaxy clusters. |
At this
point, no preference. There are particular clusters
that are going to become public in the next several weeks that I am
interested in - I will take a better look and let you know which ones at a
later date. |
