APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Tuesday January 15, 2008 (MJD 54481) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Viktor Malanushenko (day) Dmitry Bizyaev (observer) Elena Malanushenko (observer) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- We had good night for spectral observations, there are four plates are "DONE" (1636, 2613,2541,2614), and we obtained some signal on three other plates (2637,1639,2858). ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- All equipment are checked and work properly. Spectro collimation set for -4.5C. Ventilation is started at 23:15Z. Cart 1 is mounted. Night: ------ Clouds, 15 min delay with opening. New version of sdssProcedures v2_38 is installed. 01:00Z Opened Cart 1, plate 2637, baotest, r1,r2>30, 00:08-03:20 FK5 with guess offset -7,+10; foc=190, seeing 2" 1:57 preCal 2:07 sciecne 1500 2:35 sciecne 1500, changed exposure to 1700 3:08 sciecne 1500 The plate is expired. The postcal has been requested but we changed the cart already. We need to continue the observations of this plate. Cart 2, plate 1636, photoz, r1,r2>30, 4:13-5:43, previous signal is 27.2 Used Fk5 to find the guider stars. 3:49 preCalibs 3:57 science, seeing 2-2.5", clouds, r1=1.4, and r2=3.4 4:30 science 1800 efficiency is very low, the exposure was paused for 5 min and resumed again. We were waiting for clouds moved away and started another exposure. 5:11 science 1800, clear sky. The plate is "DONE".
