Discussion Topics for Wednesday and Thursday afternoon

  1. Among the prominent science goals of ALMA and the ELTs are: Circumstellar disks and the formation of planetary systems, and The high redshift Universe.
    Which ELT instruments and/or ALMA upgrades would be needed to produce a major impact in these fields?
  2. What are other main scientific synergies in the four defined areas of research? Which observations should be planed as complement to each other?
  3. Do the ALMA and ELTs communities overlap enough? If not, how should we get them to do so (workshops to train the one community on the facility of the other)?
  4. Which instrumentation will reinforce the synergies? (ALMA bands/ELTs instruments/wavelength)
  5. Should formal connections be established at some point (e.g. possibility to propose for simultaneous observations? Communication lien between the TACs?)
  6. Can the projects learn from each other and if so in which area?
  7. Which ALMA survey/larger programmes should be planed with respect to the location/latitude of the ELTs in order to enable synergies?
  8. Can/should ALMA systematically prepare follow-up targets for the ELTs?
  9. Which are the ALMA upgrades that will be the most important to fully exploit the synergy with the ELTs? (e.g. more sensitivity, spectral coverage, angular resolution...)
  10. ALMA will be a 3D instrument, many of the ELT instruments will be 3D as well are we prepared to analyze these datasets? Are there possible (or necessary) synergies in terms of data standards, (VO) tools for retrieval and post-pipeline analysis and comparison between ALMA and ELT datasets?
