APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday June 7, 2004 (MJD 53164) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Atsuko Nitta (swing) Dan Long Pete Newman Support: Steph Snedden and Craig Loomis ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Clouds and the occasional sprinkle kept us closed the first part of the night, and really high dust counts kept us closed the rest. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon =========== Steph and Craig worked on DIMM. The problem with DIMM keyboard at the telescope is in the hardware. Craig will order a new small keyboard. We moved the counter weight to 245 since it is better balanced here than at the nominal 270. Everything checked out fine. No collimation changed was ncessary. Night ===== Never opened due to clouds and dust. Best balance for spectro is, like the other instrument configurations, about 20 counts lower on the counterweights than the canonical setting for a given instrument. Right now it is set to 245. endNight quickly -didNothing to Cloudy tapes. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4659 22:32Z 22:59Z 100 O -56.04 -49.44 58 ignore ---=== IMAGING RUN DETAILS ===--- ---=== SKIPPY RESULTS ===--- Run Frame nFrames stars muErr muRms nuErr nuRms rot az el --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== LTMATCH RESULTS ===--- Run Field nFields alt az nGood rowMean rowSig colMean colSig rot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== SPECTROSCOPY DATA SUMMARY ===--- Summary Checked (y/n):y QA Procedures Done (y/n):y (for biases anyway) UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 27070, plate -9999 ------- 22:31 27070 0.0 bias ----- sequence 27071, plate 1821 ------- 23:05 27071 10.0 flat 23:07 27072 2.0 arc 23:23 27073 2.1 arc 23:25 27074 2.1 arc 23:49 27075 2.1 arc 23:51 27076 2.1 arc ----- sequence 27077, plate -9999 ------- 00:08 27077 0.0 bias 00:39 27078 0.0 bias 01:40 27079 0.0 bias ----- sequence 27080, plate -9999 ------- 02:03 27080 0.0 bias ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== DATA TAPE SUMMARY ===--- Goes: JL Stays: JL ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 22:21Z 80 30 14 240 (WSW) 1495 - Partly Cloudy 22:53Z 72 25 11 262 (W) 1438 - Partly Cloudy 23:26Z 78 30 7 237 (WSW) 1564 - Partly Cloudy 23:58Z 76 28 17 240 (WSW) 1500 - Partly Cloudy 00:30Z 73 27 14 253 (WSW) 2215 - Partly Cloudy 00:50Z 68 26 12 291 (WNW) 5628 - Mostly Cloudy 01:22Z 70 26 9 238 (WSW) 4382 - Mostly Cloudy 01:55Z 66 26 14 190 (S) 3539 - Mostly Cloudy 02:27Z 64 26 4 181 (S) 4774 - Mostly Cloudy 02:59Z 64 25 9 181 (S) 3736 - Mostly Cloudy 03:31Z 65 23 9 240 (WSW) 2215 - Sprinkles 04:04Z 65 23 6 273 (W) 1972 - Cloudy 04:36Z 62 28 23 182 (S) 2240 - Cloudy 05:08Z 59 34 19 197 (SSW) 93515 - Dust! 05:40Z 58 34 8 186 (S) 77684 - Dust! 06:13Z 58 34 11 168 (SSE) 43302 - Dust! 06:45Z 58 32 5 184 (S) 72024 - Dust! 07:17Z 57 32 9 233 (SW) 64150 - Dust! 07:49Z 58 31 1 199 (SSW) 46003 - Dust! 08:21Z 58 30 8 211 (SSW) 37936 - Dust! 08:53Z 57 31 4 186 (S) 22373 - Dust! ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- Never Opened Stowed at 30 deg alt, cartridge 1 installed.
