Workshop participants may wish to consult the following documents which describe aspects of the GBT's capabilities and scientific programs:

"The Proposer's Guide for the Green Bank Telescope" by Toney Minter summarizes the instrument's current capabilities and is a good introduction to the antenna, receivers and backends. http://www.gb.nrao.edu/gbtprops/man/GBTpg/GBTpg_tf.html

An overview of current GBT development plans is given in our section of the Program Plan: http://wikio.nrao.edu/bin/view/GB/Projects/WebHome. Look for the entry GBProgPlan2007V2.pdf on this wiki page.

"Science with Bolometer Arrays on the GBT" by Brian Mason reviews the science drivers for both the Penn Array which is now being installed on the GBT, and a possible 6400 pixel 3mm bolometer array. http://www.gb.nrao.edu/~bmason/gbt-dev/gbt-cont-science.ps
