Applying for Telescope Time

There are four separate time allocation panels for the ING telescopes:

For UK and Irish applicants the Panel for Allocation of Telescope Time (PATT).
For Spanish applicants the Comision para la Asignacion de Tiempo (CAT).
For Dutch applicants the The Netherlands PATT.
For International Time applicants the CCI (International Scientific Committee).

Electronic submission for (ING) PATT applicants for Semester 2000A is available using the Stylefile system only. Please submit PATT proposals directly to ingpatt@ing.iac.es

For the CAT community additional information can be found here.

Dutch applicants should refer to the NFRA Programme Committee information.

UK PATT Allocations for Semester 98B and previous Semesters.

The September 97 issue of the PATT newsletter - including news on Service Observing and Sevice-Q (INT), can be found on the PATT home page.

It should be noted however, that PATTnews has now been discontinued.

All time assignment committees allocate time in semesters, which run from February to July inclusive (semester 96A, 97A etc) and from August to January inclusive (semester 96B, 97B etc.)
