Description

The UK Square Kilometre Array Regional Centre (UKSRC)
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is set to revolutionise radio astronomy. The SKA Regional Centre Network (SRCNet) will develop and deploy a collaborative and federated network of SKA Regional Centres, globally distributed across SKA partner countries, to host the SKA science archive and analysis services. The SRCNet will make data storage, processing and collaboration spaces available, while supporting and training the community, to maximise the scientific productivity and impact of the SKA.

The talk will provide an update on how the United Kingdom is playing a pivotal role in the development and testing of the SRCNet, as well as how we are working with the UK astronomy community to maximise the UK science return from the SKAO.
