Carilli, NRAO, USA</div><div><br></div>The Next Generation Very Large Array<br><br>I will present the design, capabilities, and some of the priority<br>science goals of a next generation Very Large Array (ngVLA). The ngVLA<br>is an interferometric array with 10 times larger effective collecting<br>area and 10 times higher spatial resolution than the current VLA and<br>the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA), optimized for operation in<br>the wavelength range 0.3cm to 3cm. The ngVLA opens a new window on<br>the Universe through ultra-sensitive imaging of thermal line and<br>continuum emission down to milliarcecond resolution, as well as<br>unprecedented broad band continuum polarimetric imaging of non-thermal<br>processes. The continuum resolution will reach 9mas at 1cm, with a<br>brightness temperature sensitivity of 6K in 1 hour. For spectral<br>lines, the array at 1'' resolution will reach 0.3K surface brightness<br>sensitivity at 1cm and 10 km/s spectral resolution in 1 hour. These<br>capabilities are the only means with which to answer a broad range of<br>critical scientific questions in modern astronomy, including direct<br>imaging of planet formation in the terrestrial-zone, studies of<br>dust-obscured star formation and the cosmic baryon cycle down to<br>pc-scales out to the Virgo cluster, making a cosmic census of the<br>molecular gas which fuels star formation back to first light and<br>cosmic reionization, and novel techniques for exploring temporal<br>phenomena from milliseconds to years. The ngVLA is optimized for<br>observations at wavelengths between the superb performance of ALMA at<br>submm wavelengths, and the future SKA-1 at few centimeter and longer<br>wavelengths.<br><br>See: <a href="https://science.nrao.edu/futures/ngvla">https://science.nrao.edu/futures/ngvla</a><div><br></div><div>We hope to see you there.</div><div><br></div><div>Kind regards,</div><div>Vernesa<br><div apple-content-edited="true">
