19. CSIRO. EMU Bologna Meeting, Nick Seymour, September 13 th 2011 Future Meetings EMU International Meetings: 5 th Meeting: Auckland – February 2012 6 th Meeting: Sydney - 28-29 th May 2012 (provisional) SPARCS 2 nd Workshop: Sydney - 30 th May to 1 st June 2012 (provisional) Southern Cross Astrophysics Conference V – 4 th -8 th June 2012 (provisional) This conference on "Large Surveys" is the fifth in the "Southern Cross Astrophysics Conference Series" which are held annually at a suitable venue in Australia. It will be held from June 4 to 8 2012. We hope to hold the conference amongst the vineyards of the Hunter Valley, one of Australia’s premier wine growing regions. Other face-to-face meetings?? SPARCS Source-finding sub-group??

20. CSIRO. EMU Bologna Meeting, Nick Seymour, September 13 th 2011 BETA (Boolardy Engineering Test Array) First six ASKAP antennae – already in place awaiting first PAFs Potentially time available for science, after BETA commissioning and before full ASKAP commissioning. Specs: Resolution 60-80” Sensitivity: 450uJy (1hr) 320uJy (2hr) 260uJy (3hr)

EMU Bologna Meeting, Nick Seymour, September 13 th 2011 BETA (Boolardy Engineering Test Array) First six ASKAP antennae – already in place awaiting first PAFs Potentially time available for science, after BETA commissioning and before full ASKAP commissioning. Specs: Resolution 60-80” Sensitivity: 450uJy (1hr) 320uJy (2hr) 260uJy (3hr) Maybe confusion limited after a few hours Long exposures may be needed to obtain uv coverage

23. CSIRO. EMU Bologna Meeting, Nick Seymour, September 13 th 2011 EMU Value-Added Catalogue (EVACat) EMU committed to releasing XID catalogue to the community VO-compatible 6monthly releases

24. CSIRO. EMU Bologna Meeting, Nick Seymour, September 13 th 2011 Other issues Use ATLAS as a test for science we can do with EMU Obtain a better calibration of radio luminosity to SFR conversion Obtain a better understanding of the detailed physics behind the radio/IR correlation (on which the radio luminosity/SFR conversion is based) Develop a plan to get the crucial redshifts (combine deep well studied fields with wide area ‘photometric’ redshifts) Calculate how well we can obtain derived scientific results, like the star formation history, for different surveys (e.g. 8deg 2 ATLAS, 30deg 2 of EMU with deep ancillary data, 400deg 2 of EMU using shallow data, future SKA continuum surveys)
