2018.11.28 GBT Astro2020 Star Formation Telecon Telecon Participants: --------------------- Erik Rosolowsky Rachel Friesen Amanda Kepley William Armentrout Natalie Butterfield David Frayer The Astro-2020 white paper deadline has been push back a month and is now Monday, 19 February 2019. Rachel has agreed to lead a science white paper on Star-forming filaments and cores in molecular clouds which plans to include material from the ngVLA Science Book and GBT NH3 work. Amanda will work with Adam Leroy to see how to proceed with the dense gas in galaxies white paper. Natalie confirm that Adam Ginsberg is still planning a paper on the central molecular zone. Erik thinking about a white paper for a full 3mm survey over wide-areas of the galaxy (leveraging 100+pixels, e.g., Argus+, and wide instantaneous bandwidth with modern digital IF systems). Will will distribute an overleaf-template (still waiting from the Academies for an official template). We discussed that GBTIDL and related software will be put on GITHUB by the Green Bank Observatory (suggested action item from the recent GBT Surveys workshop).
