APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday October 16, 2008 (MJD 54756) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Elena Malanushenko (swing) Dan Oravetz Nathan De Lee ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- MARVELS Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Clear night with good seeing. Observed: cart. 4, 3027 (pre-selection) field A. cart. 6, 3056 (RV) fields A and B. cart. 5, 3055 (RV) fields A and B. cart. 9, 3060 (RV) fields A and B. cart. 2, 3039 (pre-selection) field B. The DIMM stopped itself at 08:00Z again. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- All systems checked and working properly. Used cart. 3 plate 3144 for collimation. Collimation was set for 6.5-7.0 C and we did not change it. Homed and relaxed mirrors. The F primary mirror number is different compared to previous canonical values, but still in spec. Consulted with Dan Long, he suggested to relax more if we have problem with pointing. We do not have it and I will do one more relax tomorrow. 23:45Z - Began ventilation. Doors and louvers opened, fans on. Night: ----- Cart. 4 is mounted. 00:33Z - Sunset. 00:35Z - Enclosure off. Cart. 4, 3027, marvels_pre201 ***************************** Field/pointing 1 or A, depending on your preference. plugMapM file: /data/spectro/plugMapM/plPlugMapM-3027-54755-02.par Note that this plate had 2 sets of plugMapM files created on 54755 as mentioned in last night's observing log. The `02' designation in this file name does not refer to the second drilled field/pointing (2 or B), it refers to the second set of plugMapM files created for 54755. The second field/pointing will be called *3027-54755-02B.par. 01:06Z - gotoField. Needed two `gotoField -gflat' commands to center the fiber masks in SAOImage. Used fk5 star to acquire the field. The fk5 star was visible just off the eduge of fiber 10. 01:33Z - Pre-calibs. Large xsigma and wsigma values since the temperature is dropping quickly. Adjusted sp1 +2000 steps and declared this set bad. 01:43Z - Pre-calibs. 01:53Z - Science. 12s. 01:56Z - Science. 12s. 01:59Z - Science. 12s. 02:05Z - Science. 12s. 02:08Z - Science. 12s. 02:12Z - Science. 12s. 02:15Z - Science. 12s. 02:18Z - Science. 12s. 02:21Z - Science. 12s. 02:26Z - Post-calibs.
