The Cycle-1 Call for Proposals
On behalf of the Spitzer Project and NASA, the Spitzer Science Center
(SSC) at Caltech has issued the Cycle-1 Call for Proposals (CP),
soliciting research proposals for the General Observer (GO) and Archival
Research (AR) programs. GO investigators may propose in one of two
categories: small (up to 50 hours) and medium (50-200 hours). It is
anticipated that 3700 hours of Spitzer observing time will be available to
GO investigators in Cycle-1. In addition, approximately $15 million of
NASA data analysis support is available to eligible GO researchers.
AR proposals are to be submitted only if investigators are seeking NASA
data analysis support, and are limited to analysis of data from the
Spitzer First Look Survey (FLS). It is
anticipated that up to $750,000 of NASA support will be made available to
support analysis of FLS data in Cycle-1. If no supporting funds are
required, no Cycle-1 proposal should be submitted. Once the Spitzer
Science Archive opens (May 2004), any investigator may access and utilize
Spitzer data in the public domain.
