Assumptions and Disclaimers
This document is a work in progress and is subject to revision and update at any time. It does not purport to cover its selected topics in depth, but simply to introduce them and provide some context within the overall disciplines of astronomy in general and radio astronomy in particular. It does not cover radio telescope technology, nor details of radio astronomy data analysis.
This training module assumes you have an understanding of high-school-level chemistry, physics, and algebra. It also assumes you have familiarity with or access to other materials on general astronomy concepts, since the focus here is on those aspects of astronomy that relate most specifically to radio astronomy.
