The 5th miniTAO/ANIR Science Workshop

The miniTAO/ANIR, which have conducted four science workshops and four observation runs so far, have become well known for the community. In the 5th workshop, there are about 17 participants in Mitaka and more via telecon. There were 9 oral presentations for their observation proposal in the workshop, and in total 15 proposals have been submitted
(except for the ANIR project time and Chilean Telescope time).

The ANIR observations in the spring of 2012 is scheduled from 8 May to 11 June (28 nights). We will design an observation program for the submitted proposals including those presented in this workshop, the ANIR Paα survey and Chilean Telescope time. The miniTAO/ANIR will be soon releasing plenty of scientific results!
