Parkes observations for project PX500 semester 2023OCTS_06

This proposal relates to time purchased by the Chinese Academy of Sciences for Parkes follow-up confirmation and timing of FAST discoveries. As the observing time has been purchased this proposal (and the related PX501) does not require TAC grading. The primary reason for submitting a proposal is to ensure an outreach statement and that the proposal is entered into OPAL for the data archive to access. The Chinese team have two time requests. The time scheduled for the first, relating to this proposal, will be allocated in blocks of 24 hours and the data will become available in the data archive with an 18 month embargo period. The second type of time will be scheduled in shorter blocks and the data archived with a 10 year embargo.

本项目涉及中国科学院为开展帕克斯射电望远镜（Parkes）对500米口径球面射电望远镜（Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope，FAST）发现源的后续证认与定时观测所购置的观测时长。鉴于本项目（及关联项目PX501）已完成观测时长购置，因此无需经过时间分配委员会（Time Allocation Committee，TAC）的评审定级。提交本项目申请的核心目标，是确保配套科普说明文档的完备，并将本项目录入OPAL系统以实现数据归档与访问。中方团队共提出两项观测时长申请：与本项目直接相关的第一项申请对应的观测时长，将以24小时为单元进行分配，所产生的数据归档后将设置18个月的禁获取期；第二项申请的观测时长将以更短的单元分配，对应数据归档后将设置10年的禁获取期。
