Revision as of 18:31, 9 September 2010

This page is to capture the plans and results of our work in Fall.

Recap

Backing up one step to review:

Goal & Proposal

the goal here is to look for old and new YSOs using all the archival data we can find. Our original proposal is here: http://coolcosmos.ipac.caltech.edu/cosmic_classroom/teacher_research/r4-cg4/cg4Proposal.pdf but also linked from our research activities page http://coolwiki.ipac.caltech.edu/index.php/CG4_Current_Research_Activities there is a page on the proposal which links to the final proposal as well.

[NB: In practice, by the AAS, i don't think we will get to the X-rays we advertised, nor the spectroscopy, but we will include the optical through 24 um photometry; see below.]

Deadlines

the deadlines we are working towards are:

  1. Oct 1 for AAS abstracts to be turned in
  2. early Jan for poster printing in time for me to carry them to the AAS.

What we've done so far

the stuff we did last June is summarized here: http://coolwiki.ipac.caltech.edu/index.php/Working_with_CG4%2BSA101 and for each of the big steps, there is an indication of what we did together and what i originally expected for you to continue to do on your own.

At this point, I'm assuming that you remember and fully understand everything that we did together through the "making color-color and color-magnitude plots" step. The stuff below that we still need to complete includes the last two steps from the "working with cg4 and sa101" page: "making seds" and "analyzing seds". If you do NOT understand what we did before, now is the time to go back and review in detail what we did before. If you have specific questions that you can't solve by talking to others and puzzling it out within your sub-group, please let me know and I'll do my best to answer them.

AAS abstracts and poster plans

The deadline for the abstracts is Oct 1. As you hopefully recall from the talk and discussion in June, the abstracts do not have to be long and detailed. They are often short and vague. We do need to ahve a complete list of our expected posters, though. Here is what I think is the plan:

1) Science poster. Chelen is working on a first draft of our abstract and will lead the poster. She will circulate a version soon.

2) Outreach poster I. Connie (?) is leading a poster whose working title I failed to write down but will be something about integrating stuff learned from this project into the WSD and WSVI environments. There will be roles for Chelen's students in this, and all of the original educator team members will be included on the poster as well (Johnson, Hoette, McCarron, Mallory) and as such will be invited to comment on poster drafts as it comes together. (PLEASE let me know if i have this wrong.)

3) Outreach poster II. Carolyn may be leading a poster on the incorporation of the NITARP experience into the Pierce College environment. This is to be confirmed.
