APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Sunday November 16, 2003 (MJD 52960) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Mike Harvanek Pete Newman ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- We never opened. The night was lost to clouds and high humidity. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Pete had a problem with sop. See the Problems section for details. The alt fiducials at 45 and 75 degrees were not reading when going up. They read ok going down. We have a new set of nominal mig values due to the change in mechanical colimation. The spectro collimation was adjusted. See the Problems section for details. Night: ------ Clouds and high humidity at sunset. Although the humidity eventually dropped, the clouds persisted throughout the night. We never opened. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4248 23:02Z 23:20Z 100 O 110.39 114.88 44 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): N/A UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 23286, plate -9999 ------- 23:02Z 23286 0.0 bias {{}} 23:13Z 23287 0.0 bias {{}} ----- sequence 23288, plate 1296 ------- 23:39Z 23288 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann l}} test 23:42Z 23289 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann r}} test 00:01Z 23290 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann l}} test 00:04Z 23291 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann r}} test 00:14Z 23292 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann l}} test 00:16Z 23293 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann r}} test 00:27Z 23294 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann l}} test 00:29Z 23295 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann r}} test 00:40Z 23296 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann l}} test 00:43Z 23297 2.1 arc {{focus, hartmann r}} test 00:49Z 23298 10.0 flat pre-flat test 00:52Z 23299 2.0 arc pre-arc test ----- sequence 23300, plate -9999 ------- 01:02Z 23300 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: none Stays: none ---=== 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 23:57Z 38 31 10 218 (SW) 445 - mostly cloudy 00:30Z 37 32 15 216 (SW) 484 - " " 01:02Z 36 32 13 196 (SSW) 916 - " " 01:34Z 36 32 11 211 (SSW) 1033 - " " 02:06Z 35 33 13 231 (SW) 1081 - " " 02:38Z 37 28 14 247 (WSW) 735 - " " 03:11Z 37 24 15 235 (SW) 402 - " " 03:43Z 37 26 10 264 (W) 529 - " " 04:15Z 38 23 9 250 (WSW) 447 - " " 04:47Z 38 24 10 246 (WSW) 389 - " " 05:20Z 37 24 9 238 (WSW) 402 - " " 05:52Z 37 25 13 250 (WSW) 370 - " " 06:24Z 37 25 15 217 (SW) 381 - " " 06:56Z 36 23 14 231 (SW) 368 - " " 07:28Z 35 27 12 231 (SW) 344 - " " 08:00Z 36 27 11 262 (W) 428 - " " 08:33Z 36 24 13 270 (W) 458 - " " 09:05Z 35 23 12 276 (W) 492 - " " 09:37Z 35 23 8 299 (WNW) 510 - " " 10:09Z 35 20 11 272 (W) 514 - " " 10:41Z 35 19 17 284 (WNW) 469 - " " ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 23:55Z Enclosure doors opened, fans and blowers on, louvers opened. 00:50Z Doors closed, fans and blowers off, louvers closed (humidity).
