The data reduction tutorials will be taking place across the NMT campus, specifically in Weir Hall (Rm. 28), the Martin Speare Building (Rms. 128 and 209), and the Array Operations Center/Dominici Science Operations Center. There may be slight differences in installations between the various buildings. This document describes how to use CASA in the various buildings.
Gaining Access
The data reduction tutorials will use the imaging account. If the machine you will be using is not already logged into this account, do so. The tutorial leads will provide the password.
The home directory for the imaging account is common to all machines. Do not modify any files in the home directory.
First Steps
Each machine has a local installation of CASA and a local copy of the relevant data files and calibration models. 1. Open a terminal window. 2. Start the Opera Web browser. Do not use the Firefox browser. If you attempt to do so, you'll most likely be met with error messages.
