Financial Support for Visiting Observers - Transnational Access Programme


Astronomers who are based in the EU and the Associated States but are not affiliated to a German astronomical institute, may also receive additional support from the Transnational Access (TNA) Program of 'RadioNet'. This will, in general, entail payment of travel and accomodation expenses for one of the proposal team members to visit the Effelsberg telescope for the observations.

The Transnational Access programme is one of the activities of "RadioNet", an Integrated Infrastructure Initiative (I3) funded under EC FP7, that has pulled together all of Europe's leading astronomy facilities to produce a focused, coherent and integrated project that will significantly enhance the quality and quantity of science performed by European astronomers. For details see http://www.radionet-eu.org .

Upon completion of their observations, TNA supported scientists are required to submit their feedback through the TNA web pages.
