Large Programs

IRAM offers the possibility to apply for observing time in the framework of a Large Program using NOEMA and the 30-meter telescope. Please consult the current Call for Proposals as different restrictions may apply for both observatories during a given observing semester.

Please consult the Large Program Policy for more details.

A comprehensive summary of completed and on-going (standard) Large Programs can be found in the IRAM Data Archive.

The large guaranteed-time (GT) programs with NIKA-2 and the large MPG-IRAM Observatory Programs (MIOP) are run with special source protection under LP policy. The NIKA-2 GT programs are fenced for the 2mm and 1mm bands against new continuum mapping projects at the 30-meter telescope or continuum driven projects at NOEMA. Similarly, all MIOP (MPG-IRAM Observatory Programs) observing fields are protected against any new observing requests for which the science goals reproduce in large parts those of the respective MIOP. Proposal abstracts and source lists are available on the NIKA2 Home Page and the MIOP Home Page.
