Timings: 11h50-12h20 & 14h50- 18h30 IST (UCT +5h30)
This event is a part of the 'SKA/MSE and multiwavelength synergies' Franco-Indian workshop (https://ifcam-2.sciencesconf.org/) to be held from 9th-13th Jan 2023
Theme:The aim of this seminar series (30 mins/day) is to create awareness for the development of women's careers in Astronomy.
The '2023 Optical and Radio data analysis mini-school' is a 5-days virtual school with tutorial sessions of 3.5 hours/day that will cover topics related to optical and radio data analysis and plotting tools.
These sessions will include short introduction, followed by hands-on sessions (3.5 hr) where participants will work along with the instructors. Tutorials/assignments will be given to the participants for the practice sessions. The tutorial problems will be discussed and solutions will be provided towards the end of the session. The participants will be also given the opportunity to discuss their results, towards the end of this training program and a participation certificate will be provided by the organizers. A slack channel (link below) is also created to encourage interaction on a common platform.
Required Material:
The sessions will be hands-on and so you will need to have a laptop/desktop at your disposal.
