GBO Single Dish Summer School (SDSS)

Goal of the SDSS

The GBO Single Dish Summer School provides graduate students, post-docs, and experts in other fields of astronomy with both knowledge and practical experience of the techniques and applications of single-dish radio astronomy. The school is based around an intensive series of lectures from experts, as well as hands-on radio astronomy projects and tutorials. The next GBO SDSS will take place in Summer 2026.

Topics we will cover in the school include

Radio Emission Properties

Fundamentals of radio telescopes

Radio Frequency Instrumentation

Observing Techniques and Strategies

Calibration and Data Processing

Complementary Use of Single Dish Telescopes and Interferometers
