%% LaTeX template for the science justification to be %%
%% submitted as part of a regular ALMA proposal. %%
%% This template should also be used for a ToO, Solar, or %%
%% mm-VLBI ALMA proposal, but NOT for Large Programs %%
%% (these have a separate template with more sections) %%

%%%%% How to convert this document to PDF %%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% If your figures are stored as PostScript files, you can use the
% following commands to generate a PDF file of your proposal:
%% latex file.tex
%% dvips file.dvi
%% ps2pdf file.ps file.pdf
% If your figures are PDF images or bitmap pictures in PNG, JPG, or GIF format,
% you can use the pdflatex command to generate a PDF file from this template
% (note, however, that the pdflatex command does not handle PostScript files):
% pdflatex file.tex
% Warnings:
% 1. You must make sure that PDF output generated from this
% template is complete both when displayed with a viewer
% (acroread, for example) and when printed on paper.
% LaTeX installations vary greatly and therefore it might
% not be possible to get all proposals to come out
% correctly with a single text page layout.
% In some cases you will have to adjust the
% \topmargin=-7mm command in the template to center the
% text vertically in the page.
% 2. The scientific justification, figures, tables, references,
% and public outreach statement must all fit within the
% 4-page limit.
% 3. You are free to include colour images in your proposal
% justification. Proposals are distributed to ALMA Review Panels
% in electronic form. However, the scientific content of the
% images should still remain clear when displayed or printed
% in black and white.
% 4. This template is for regular, ToO, Solar, or mm-VLBI ALMA proposals,
% but NOT for Large Programs: these have a separate template with
% more sections, and is available from the ALMA Science Portal

\section{Scientific justification}
% NEW FOR CYCLE 7: Only for large-programs one can disclose the name of the PIs
% (as part of the management plan)
%
% In Cycle 7, the investigators will be listed with the first letter of the first name
% and the full surname, and the list of investigators on the cover sheet will be randomized
% to reduce the biases affecting the outcomes of the proposal review process.
% The ALMA proposal review panels will be able to see the team that is behind
% the proposal. PIs of large programs can be named in the management plan
%
% Please describe the scientific background of the project,
% pertinent references and previous work relevant to this
% proposal, together with any figures and tables that you judge necessary
% (use the following two examples as templates, or remove)
%-----------------------------Figure Start---------------------------
% The 'scale' parameter below allows you to scale the figure so that it fits within the page.
% In this case the figure was scaled to 20% of its original size.
% Note: for .png files one has to use pdflatex, not classic latex
%
% Minimum font size for references: 12pt
% Proposals not compliant to this will be rejected. See Section 5.2.1 in the ALMA Proposer's Guide.
