Agenda:

1. DR and Science workshop on March 22nd-26th

• Thursday March 25, 2pm-3:30pm: 
  

Hot Core WG: 6 talks of 10min+5min or 9 talks of 7min+3min
Mélisse: G337.92 
Fabrice:  W43-MM2 kinematics
Nathalie: W43-MM2 hot cores
Friedrich:
Manuel:
Melanie: SiO & shocks (Kinematics Session)
Allison: SiO outflows (Kinematics Session)
Timea: G328

- group session on Monday: we will actively work simultaneously running clean tests in virtual co-working. We will then do a discussion on Wednesday of current issues and how to proceed and then on Friday we would discuss the results of the clean tests done on Monday. 

1. Overview of current status and development since last telecom
   • still largely testing cleaning: masking vs multi scale cleaning
     
   • masking scripts for SiO and N2H+
     
   • entire spws (cubes)

1. Current issues and limitations with line/cube cleaning

• Status of pipeline processing of cubes 
  
• Roberto produced cubes for Fabrice on specific lines: no artefacts, look ok
  
• QA for cubes: 
  
  • G337 by Melisse
    
  • QA for SiO by Allison for all fields : wider in velocity?
    
    • 4 sources (detailed QA)
      
    • others: visual checks
      
      • G351.77: divergence issues, probably solved, but never re-imaged yet
        
      • G333.60: channels 102 and 103 diverge, but it is slight
        
  • G327: Friedrich 
    
    • tests for merging with the 7m data 
      
  • G353: Roberto (Amy’s student) mainly N2H+ (12m only data)
    

1. Input for the overview paper
   • status : 
     

1. Status of on-going projects

• LAB: 
  
  • Nathalie/Fabrice W43-MM2: spectra of hot core candidates from bsens-cleanest images by Yohann
    
  • Melisse on G337:  systematic hot core identification
    

• Antoine: Melanie (PhD) on shocks : shock code G12.80
  
• Manuel+Estrella on W51e
  
• Friedrich: G327
  
• Anyone else?
  

A script to download a bunch of cubes at once using Globus in command line is in:

(Note: to access to /private-work you need to be added by Adam)

1. Status of data processing tools (ADMIT, IMAGER)
   • Status of tests with IMAGER
     
   • Status of the update of the linelist for ADMIT ? 
     
   • Adam: Linelist  on github + google doc
     

    https://github.com/ALMA-IMF/hotcores <- place to put line lists, code related to hot cores, etc.  This is private, so you must request access (give Adam your username)
