APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Sunday August 31, 2003 (MJD 52883) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Jurek Krzesinski, Atsuko Nitta-Kleinman ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Humidity kept us closed first half of the night. We opened in the second half and menaged to finish plates: cart 5 plt 1471 and cart 6 plt 1496 We had no problems tonight. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon checkout - ok. High humidity at the beginning of the night - waiting. 02:52Z cart 2 plt 1415 mounted, but the humidity again rised, so we didn't open. 08:16Z cart 3 plt 1102 mounted, we finaly opened the telescope. Stars on slew. Clouds too dence, we lost the only exposure on this place due to poor S/N on 30 minutes exposure. 09:14Z cart 5 plt 1471 mounted, we are giving a chance this plate. Stars weren't on slew, but Atsuko guessed a proper offsets and got stars right away. Hmmm - maybe we need to interface her into tcc :))) ? 09:18Z Humidity is rising again, but plate done with one addtional to previous exposure. 10:15Z cart 6 plt 1496 mounted. We had to clear offsets and use fk5 star, to find guide stars. Done with 3 exposures. 11:57Z endNight done. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4088 00:52Z 01:15Z 100 O 61.96 67.91 54 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 22161, plate -9999 ------- 00:56 22161 0.0 bias 01:18 22162 0.0 bias ----- sequence 22162, plate 1471 ------- 02:00 22163 10.0 flat 02:02 22164 2.0 arc ----- sequence 22165, plate 1102 ------- 08:27 22165 10.0 flat 08:30 22166 2.0 arc 09:05 22167 1800.1 target too low S/N ----- sequence 22168, plate 1471 ------- 09:19 22168 10.0 flat 09:22 22169 2.0 arc 10:03 22170 1800.1 target done 10:10 22171 240.0 smear ----- sequence 22172, plate 1496 ------- 10:28 22172 10.0 flat 10:31 22173 2.0 arc 10:50 22174 900.1 target 11:05 22175 600.1 target 11:18 22176 600.1 target 11:25 22177 240.0 smear done ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 09:31Z 5 1471 180.00 -0.0082 76.17 0.0010 -0.05 -0.0046 1.000170 10:36Z 6 1496 -34.92 0.0039 51.84 0.0009 151.15 -0.0122 1.000020 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== DATA TAPE SUMMARY ===--- Goes: JL 6675 Stays: JL 6676 ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 09:30Z 5 1471 1.00017 -1678 -467 -200 180 76.2 11.7 0 26 gdr 2.3 10:35Z 6 1496 1.00002 -198 786 -225 -35 52.0 11.3 1 108 -/- 1.8 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 00:49Z 55 50 7 24 (NNE) 82 - 01:20Z 53 50 9 52 (NE) 105 - 01:52Z 53 47 21 56 (NE) 127 - 02:24Z 53 45 24 62 (ENE) 115 - 02:54Z 52 46 26 69 (ENE) 96 - 03:26Z 49 46 23 67 (ENE) 112 - 03:58Z 49 44 29 69 (ENE) 148 - 04:32Z 48 45 25 62 (ENE) 174 - 05:03Z 47 45 28 68 (ENE) 171 - 05:35Z 47 45 29 69 (ENE) 246 - 06:07Z 47 44 26 68 (ENE) 340 - 06:41Z 47 45 22 73 (ENE) 330 - 07:12Z 46 44 18 65 (ENE) 271 - 07:44Z 51 37 7 346 (NNW) 269 - 08:16Z 53 31 6 23 (NNE) 297 - 08:47Z 51 34 13 59 (ENE) 314 - 09:21Z 53 46 1 334 (NNW) 103 - 09:53Z 52 45 0 306 (NW) 98 - 10:24Z 53 46 1 36 (NE) 112 - 10:56Z 53 38 1 103 (ESE) 232 - 11:26Z 54 29 0 119 (ESE) 331 - 11:58Z 55 25 5 87 (E) 326 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 08:10Z telescope opened. 11:50Z telescope closed, hoses hooked up.
