The 30m-telescope and NOEMA cover a broad range of science topics from the study of solar system comets to VLBI observations of supermassive black holes in distant galaxies. The institute counts a total of more than 200 peer-reviewed publications per year, over the years 2017 to 2022, mostly in leading journals such as A&A, ApJ, MNRAS, Nature, Science, and SPIE. Because of high oversubscription rates, significant fractions of high-quality proposals must be rejected due to limited telescope time.
In 2022, 531 observing proposals from 1368 unique mostly European users originating from 49 countries were submitted to IRAM. Raw and calibrated data of
the two IRAM telescopes become public on request 36 months after the end of the semester of observations for standard programs. Large programs must deliver science-ready data products for public release 18 months after the end of the last
semester of observations. Data from completed Large Programs is publicly and openly available via a web interface.
