 Based on requests from the EVN user community, the EVN CBD has decided that the abstracts of any proposal (including ToOs and Short observations) submitted starting from the October 1 2017 deadline that receive observing time will become public at the EVN Data Archive (http://jive.eu/select-experiment). Based on requests from the EVN user community, the EVN CBD has decided that the abstracts of any proposal (including ToOs and Short observations) submitted starting from the October 1 2017 deadline that receive observing time will become public at the EVN Data Archive (http://jive.eu/select-experiment).
-===== Short Observation Requests (e-VLBI) ===== 
- 
-Short requests (≤ 4 hours) are intended for short exploratory observations, such as checking calibrators or the feasibility of an observational setup, in preparation for a VLBI observation or proposal. Short requests are *not* intended as short scientific observations and will have *no* proprietary time; after correlation and pipeline calibration they become public through the EVN Archive.  
- 
-Short requests must use standard observing and recording modes. They will be scheduled on a best effort basis. The observing time (<= 4 hours) should be justified in the request; shorter projects may be easier to schedule. 
- 
-The format of short observation requests should include: 
-  *   A brief motivation, up to 250 words 
-  *   The coordinates of the target(s) and calibrator(s) 
-  *   The observing time justification 
-  *   The frequency band 
-  *   The GST range 
-  *   Essential stations for the observation 
-  *   Any other information necessary for central scheduling by JIVE staff, e.g., preferred phase-referencing cycle (in case the short observation runs during an e-EVN day). 
- 
-Short observation requests may be submitted up to 3 weeks before e-VLBI run begins by email to the EVN Program Committee Chair (Kazi Rygl, INAF-IRA, 
-kazi.rygl@inaf.it) with the EVN Scheduler (Alastair Gunn, 
-alastair.g.gunn@manchester.ac.uk) and JIVE (Bob Campbell, campbell@jive.eu 
-and  Zsolt Paragi, zparagi@jive.eu) in copy. The EVN PC Chair will, at her 
-discretion, authorize scheduling in any gaps in the session plan.

-Real-time e-EVN spectral line observations would be similar to those recorded on disk, but without the possibility of multiple correlation passes, which may limit the tactics for achieving higher spectral resolutions. The minimum data rate remains 32 Mbps (e.g. 2 dual-pol 2 MHz subbands).+Real-time e-EVN spectral line observations would be similar to those recorded on disk, but without the possibility of multiple correlation passes, which may limit the tactics for achieving higher spectral resolutions.
