4th Chandra/CIAO Workshop: 20-22 May 2002
Chandra X-ray Center, Cambridge, MA (USA)


Following the success of the previous Chandra/CIAO workshops, the Chandra X-Ray Center (CXC) is announcing the fourth in a series of workshops aimed at helping users to work with the Chandra Interactive Analysis of Observations (CIAO) software.

CIAO is the CXC software developed for the analysis of Chandra data. However, CIAO is non-mission specific (apart from a few instrument tools). More info on CIAO can be found at http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/.

This workshop will be based on CIAO 2.2.1, which was released in the December 2001, or any software patch available at that time. A summary of the features in the CIAO2.2 software can be found from the release notes page.

The fourth workshop will be held at the Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, MA (USA) on May 20-22, 2002. Further workshops will be organized depending on demand.

Details of the program will be sent to registered participants and posted on the CIAO Workshop web site at http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/workshop/

The program will include:



TALKS:


HANDS-ON SESSIONS:

Potential participants may look at all the handouts made available to the participants during the November 2001 or previous workshops, together with viewgraphs and scripts from talks and demos, on the workshop Web site Handouts and Presentations page.

We are working to allow the largest possible attendance and we are expecting to accept the first 25 to 30 registered participants.
