KRSC has also introduced the new support email address: krsc.user.help@gmail.com. If you have any question on the above guides and policies, please contact us via KRSC user help.

 

Korean Rubin DRH List (FY2024-) Available NOW

2024/02/20

KRSC Management Team is happy to announce the Korean Rubin DRH List (FY2024-) of 14 PI scientists and 35 JA scientists. We appreciate the service of the Korean Rubin DRH Proposal Review Committee that undertook the challenging responsibility of evaluating proposals based on diverse factors, including scientific merit, feasibility, broad impact, contribution to Korean in-kind programs, and more. The Committee was chaired by Prof. Myungkook James Jee and consisted of seven members from various institutions. We thank the Committee members for their service.

Please refer to the Korean Rubin DRH List page for more information.

 

Korean Rubin DRH List (FY2024-) Announcement Delayed to End of January 2024 (TBC)

2024/01/03


Dear all Korean Rubin DRH Applicants,


Thank you for your proposal for the Korean Rubin DRH status. We had 61 proposals in total (PI + JA). The Korean Rubin DRH Proposal Review Committee was formed right after the application closure, and has been diligently working to meet the previously announced timeline. However, due to the busy schedule of the Committee members around the year end, and the big load of proposal review combined with the PI and JA status match, the Review Committee has decided to delay the final decision on the updated Korean Rubin DRH List to around the end of January 2024 (TBC).

Please note that the exact date of announcement is still subject to change, and to be confirmed later.


Thank you for your patience and understanding.

2023 Korean Rubin Science Collaboration Workshop to be held on Nov. 10th (Fri) at KASI

2023/10/31

See THIS for details

[New Due Date: Nov. 17th (23:59 KST) - Invitation to join Korean Rubin Science Collaboration and to apply for Korean Rubin Data Right Holder Status

2023/09/22 [updated on 2023/11/01]

Dear KAS members,


KAS has been involved in the LSST Project of Rubin Observatory that is expected to start operation in 2025, and working to create opportunities for KAS members to do exciting research using Rubin/LSST survey data. Since the introduction of the Rubin in-kind contribution programs, KASI has faced a challenge to meet the new requirements for the Rubin Data Access Right, and to make preparations for the current and future demand for Rubin/LSST related sciences. Therefore, KASI is now inviting KAS members to newly apply for Rubin Data Right Holder (DRH) status. All the applications will be reviewed by the independent  selection committee, and we expect to announce the new Korean Rubin DRH list around Dec. 2023.


KAS members are also invited to join the Korean Rubin Science Collaboration (KRSC) that will encompass a wider scope of researchers and students who are interested in any scientific topics to be enabled by the proprietary and/or public Rubin/LSST survey data. Young research scientists, students, and prospect applicants for Rubin DRH status are strongly encouraged to participate in KRSC.


We are planning to present the KRSC and Rubin DRH application/review process during the upcoming KAS meeting in Jeju island (“Introduction to Korean Rubin Science Collaboration” @2:30pm, 10/19) and to host a discussion session during the Optical Astronomy Division meeting. Please come and join us.

천문학회원분들께,


한국천문연구원은 2025년 첫 가동을 앞두고 있는 Rubin Observatory의 Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST)에 참여하고 있으며, 이를 통해 한국천문학계가 Rubin/LSST 탐사자료를 활용해 연구할 수 있도록 지원하고 있습니다. 한국천문연구원이 현물기여(in-kind contribution) 방식을 통해 Rubin/LSST 프로젝트에 참여하게 되면서, 변화된 Rubin 자료접근권(Data Access Right) 요건에 맞추고 한국천문학계의 현재와 미래 연구수요에 대응하기 위해 새로이 Rubin 자료접근권자격(Data Right Holder; DRH) 지원서를 접수합니다. 접수된 지원서는 별도 위원회를 구성하여 심사하고 Rubin 자료접근권을 배정할 계획입니다.


또한, 넓은 범위의 연구자분들이 참여할 수 있는 Korean Rubin Science Collaboration(KRSC)를 결성하여 미래의 비공개/공개 Rubin/LSST 자료를 활용한 연구수요에 효과적으로 대응하려고 하니 신진연구자를 포함한 많은 분들의 관심과 참여를 부탁드립니다.


KRSC와 Rubin 자료접근권자(DRH) 지원 및 심사에 대해서는 10월 천문학회 기간의 발표(“Introduction to Korean Rubin Science Collaboration” @2:30pm, 10/19)와 광학천문분과총회에서 자세히 소개할 예정이니 많은 참여 바랍니다.
