ASKAP SSP Astro Support Astro support of ASKAP SSPs Astro support for ASKAP surveys: staffing Aim for 0.5 – 1 FTE of post-doc support of each major survey area (depending on co-funding success) Realignment of current staff Tobias Westmeier – ASKAP Project Scientist SSP manager (during Ilana’s leave) Jimi Green – GASKAP involvement (primarily OH masers) Shea Brown – POSSUM, EMU (wide-field polarimetry, imaging) Neeraj Gupta – End-to-end simulations Two post-doc positions now filled, early 2010 starts “Mapping the HI Universe” (Russell Jurek) “Exploring the Magnetic Universe” (Shane O’Sullivan)

ASKAP SSP Astro Support Astro support of ASKAP SSPs Astro support for ASKAP surveys: staffing cont. Five relevant positions now advertised (close 30 Nov) Senior staff position in ASKAP science (based in Perth) CSIRO SKA Project Scientist “Radio Transient Sky” slow transients post-doc position “Deep Radio Imaging of the First Galaxies” post-doc Bolton Fellowship (Pulsar timing post-doc) Super-Science Fellowships as “Admin Org.” Aim for 2 SSP post-docs in Round 1: Areas ?? Aim for 3 SSP post-docs in Round 2: Areas ???

Bjorn Emonts (Colloquia) Ilana Feain (ASKAP Project Scientist) James Green (Tidbinbilla contact) Neeraj Gupta (ASKAP simulations) George Hobbs (Pulsar contact) Simon Johnston (ASKAP Project Scientist) Bärbel Koribalski (Co-supervised student coordinator) Naomi McClure-Griffiths (ATCA L/S C/X Proj. Sci. & Miriad Proj. Sci.) Ray Norris (ASKAP Operations Planning/Data Archive) James Urquhart (Millimetre Astronomy Res. Sci.) Tobias Westmeier (ASKAP Project Scientist)

CSIRO ATUC, Astro Issues Radio Astronomy Schools Shift to annual (rather than every 2 – 3 years) school with alternating emphasis on Synthesis / Single Dish techniques 2009 School at Parkes 21 – 25 Sept. About 30 students from around Aus. and further Mike Keith and Jimi Green did great job organising
