WorkshopSelfcal

This page describes the hands-on self calibration portion of the ALMA data reduction workshop. In this session you will carry out self-calibration on ALMA Science Verification data to improve the image quality. This page describes the data and introduces the scripts. It is not a full-fledged CASA guide, only background for the hands on portion of the workshop. For the imaging session in the morning go here: WorkshopImaging
