APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday December 23, 2005 (MJD 53728) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Swing: Dan Long Night: Jurek Krzesinski Elena Malanushenko Viktor Malanushenko ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The most of night it was cirrus. We was doing spectroscopy. Three plates declared as "Done" and one is in progress. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: Spectro focus checked. No changes made. Still set for between 3 and 4 C. No problems encountered during checkout. However one odd thing was noted. A couple of times this afternoon the wind speed gusted over the limit, but did not trigger a weather warning in the watcher. 23:45Z Doors Open, Fans On, Louvers Open 00:20Z Enclosure Open Night: Clouds, the weather condition is not photometric. We are doing Spectroscopy. 01:06 Z Cart 2, plate 2328 Guider starts on GoTo Field. Previous Esposure was 3300 with s/n=9.8. Today's exposure is 8400, total s/n=50.5. "DONE". 04:14 Z Cart 7, plate 2070. Guider starts on GoToField. Previous exposure time was 2400, and s/n=14.9. Today's exposure is 7200, and s/n=26.7, total s/n=41.6 "Continue" 06:59 Z Cart 6, Plate 2073, Used fk5-star to find the guider stars. Total exposure time is 9000, s/n is 53.3. "DONE" 10:21 Z Cart 5 Plate 2360. Used fk5-star to find the guider stars. Total exposure time 3900. s/n = 16.0 "DONE" 11:59 Z Car4 Plate 2225. Used fk5-star to find the guider stars. After 2100 exposure time the s/n is 10.0 "Continue" EndNight finished ok. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5952 21:13Z 21:22Z 100 O 120.07 122.31 29 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): Yes QA Procedures Done (y/n): Yes UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 35739, plate -9999 ------- 21:15 35739 0.0 bias ----- sequence 35740, plate 2360 ------- 21:21 35740 10.0 flat 21:23 35741 2.0 arc 21:28 35742 2.1 arc 21:30 35743 2.1 arc ----- sequence 35744, plate 2328 ------- 22:53 35744 10.0 flat 22:55 35745 2.0 arc 23:06 35746 2.1 arc 23:09 35747 2.1 arc ----- sequence 35751, plate 2328 ---- 01:07 35751 10.0 flat 01:09 35752 2.0 arc 01:29 35753 900.1 target 01:52 35754 1200.1 target 02:14 35755 1200.1 target 02:37 35756 1200.1 target 03:00 35757 1200.1 target 03:22 35758 1200.1 target 03:25 35759 10.0 flat 03:27 35760 2.0 arc 03:59 35761 1500.2 target ----- sequence 35762, plate 2070 ------- 04:15 35762 10.0 flat 04:18 35763 2.0 arc 04:42 35764 1200.1 target 05:05 35765 1200.1 target 05:27 35766 1200.1 target 05:50 35767 1200.1 target 06:13 35768 1200.1 target 06:36 35769 1200.1 target 06:42 35770 10.0 flat 06:44 35771 2.0 arc ----- sequence 35772, plate 2073 ------- 07:00 35772 10.0 flat 07:02 35773 2.0 arc 07:26 35774 1200.1 target 07:48 35775 1200.1 target 08:17 35776 1200.1 target 08:40 35777 1200.1 target 08:43 35778 10.0 flat 08:45 35779 2.0 arc 09:09 35780 1200.1 target 09:32 35781 1200.1 target 10:05 35782 1800.1 target ----- sequence 35783, plate 2360 ------- 10:22 35783 10.0 flat 10:24 35784 2.0 arc 10:43 35785 900.1 target 11:00 35786 900.1 target 11:23 35787 1200.1 target 11:40 35788 900.1 target ----- sequence 35789, plate 2225 ------- 12:00 35789 10.0 flat 12:02 35790 2.0 arc 12:20 35791 900.1 target 12:43 35792 1200.1 target ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01:02Z 2 2328 25.81 0.0004 54.45 0.0049 201.39 0.0111 1.000130 04:25Z 7 2070 3.26 -0.0002 50.78 0.0027 182.66 -0.0207 1.000130 07:49Z 6 2073 118.07 0.0066 82.61 0.0037 -66.54 0.0465 1.000130 10:51Z 5 2360 -29.73 -0.0035 74.06 0.0028 153.79 -0.0078 1.000210 11:27Z 5 2360 -51.79 -0.0035 69.10 0.0028 135.69 -0.0078 1.000210 12:05Z 4 2225 76.26 -0.0008 79.65 0.0045 250.14 0.0411 1.000060 ---=== 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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01:02Z 2 2328 1.00013 -1284 175 70 26 54.5 5.0 19 19 -- 1.3 04:26Z 7 2070 1.00013 -1284 206 90 3 50.8 4.5 16 2 -- 1.6 07:09Z 6 2073 1.00013 -1284 112 50 107 74.7 3.7 15 17 -- 07:50Z 6 2073 1.00013 -1284 104 50 118 82.7 4.3 21 19 -- 1.7 10:51Z 5 2360 1.00021 -2074 -562 30 -30 74.0 4.1 10 360 -- 1.6 11:27Z 5 2360 1.00021 -2074 -554 30 -52 69.1 4.8 5 7 -- 1.7 12:05Z 4 2225 1.00006 -593 658 30 76 79.6 4.4 3 14 -- 1.7 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 20:58Z 42 20 28 17 (NNE) 444 - Cirrus 21:28Z 43 20 35 19 (NNE) 389 - Cirrus 21:59Z 42 20 16 350 (NNW) 338 - Cirrus 22:29Z 42 21 23 29 (NNE) 353 - Thick Cirrus 23:00Z 43 20 17 9 (N) 487 - Cirrus 00:52Z 41 20 22 24 (NNE) 513 - 01:22Z 41 21 17 352 (NNW) 562 - 01:52Z 41 21 13 12 (NNE) 667 - 02:23Z 41 21 24 15 (NNE) 779 - 02:54Z 41 21 11 1 (N) 824 - 03:26Z 40 20 22 9 (N) 738 - 03:57Z 40 19 20 19 (NNE) 554 - 04:27Z 40 18 18 25 (NNE) 445 - 04:58Z 40 16 19 16 (NNE) 312 - 05:31Z 41 14 10 358 (NNW) 264 - 06:03Z 40 15 22 14 (NNE) 321 - 06:33Z 40 13 13 1 (N) 297 - 07:04Z 39 12 22 20 (NNE) 293 - 07:35Z 39 5 28 22 (NNE) 307 - 08:07Z 39 0 13 358 (NNW) 296 - 08:38Z 40 0 8 12 (NNE) 271 - 09:09Z 39 1 8 14 (NNE) 301 - 09:40Z 40 0 9 12 (NNE) 260 - 10:12Z 41 0 5 22 (NNE) 241 - 10:44Z 39 0 4 10 (N) 273 - 11:16Z 38 2 1 294 (WNW) 249 - 11:48Z 38 2 4 3 (N) 259 - 12:19Z 41 0 2 336 (NNW) 208 - 12:50Z 41 0 8 296 (WNW) 241 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 23:45Z Doors Open, Fans On, Louvers Open 00:20Z Enclosure Open 13:10 Z Enclosure closed.
