Introduction

We are holding a joint SAMI and Hector busy week on 5th – 8th Feb, 2024. It will be held in Sydney at the University of Sydney. The main points of focus for the meeting will be:

• Reports from WG leads.
• Discussion on the most important papers with early data and who will lead them.
• Discussion of current and future SAMI science, including links to Hector.
• Session on the Hector path and timeline for emission and stellar fitting. First fit data will be available for people to play with.
• Bulge-disk decomposition needs photometry and imaging that is homogenous – there will be a discussion on the plan for homogenising the imaging and photometry.
• Early analysis of Hector data, including testing and improvements to pipelines and preliminary science analysis.
• We will be asking for an update from the WAVES team on their detailed timeline, as well as from 4HS who are happy to share the z’s they get.
• Hector strategic planning – Strategy on the fields and planning going forward for 2dF hector regions.

Location

The meeting will be held in Rm LG17 in the Physics Road Learning Hub. The Learning Hub is located behind the School of Physics access can be gained either via the walkway at the Eastern end of the School of Physics building or through level 3 of the School (1 level up from the entrance level, a walkway towards the eastern end of the building goes through to Sydney Nano Hub, walk through the foyer area and across the courtyard to the Learning Hub).

For directions, please visit campus maps and type in the venue name, this will provide an interactive map for directions and public transport.

For information about getting to USyd Camperdown campus please click here to access information on public transport, cycling and parking including paying via the Cello park app.

Please note that parking spaces on campus are limited so we encourage you to take public transport. To locate parking spaces on the Camperdown/Darlington Campus, go to campus maps  and select the icon for ‘Car Parking’ and the location Camperdown.

Accommodation

There are many accommodation options around the local area.

Airbnb has a wide range of different accommodation which is often cheaper than a hotel room.

If you do prefer a hotel we recommend:

• Veriu Camperdown: – this tends to be our preferred option for guests and is a 5 minute walk from campus.
• Rydges Camperdown
• Quality Apartments Camperdown – both on Missenden Road
• The Collectionist Hotel – local quirky boutique hotel

Cheaper on campus options are St Pauls and Sancta Sophia College. Availability is limited and it is recommended to contact them directly.
