APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday May 15, 2009 (MJD 54967) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Viktor Malanushenko Olena Malanushenko Alaina Sheldon - Pointing training ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Virga, clouds, and nearby radar returns at the beginning of the night; clear with good seeing in the middle and clouds, high dust, and high humidity by the morning. Pointing model is done. Observed Cart.2 plate 3404, segue - done It was last night of Marvels May's run, so we asked to re-plug 5 cartridges total. By the morning it was fire smoke on cite. Weather: strong wind ~30 mph East (70 grad), dust counts up to 13K, We called to Steph, Fire department, Mark. They knew and it is ok for now. We got ~20K dust counts, so ask to check the mirror. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- All systems are checked and they work properly. Collimate is checked and previously set for ~ +13. It does not need to be changed. sp1> +15.5 - 1.6 = +13.9 sp2> +14.3 - 2.0 = +12.3 Night ---------- 01:20Z start ventilation. Cart 2 plate 3404 is mounted, segue There is virga nearby and scattered radar return. We are waiting for weather improvement. 06:20 Z enclosure is off used FK5 to find Guider stars 06:32:11Z preCalibs 1 1 06:39:42Z doNextScience 1200 MJD b1 r1 b2 r2 Texp Sum --------------------------------------------------- 54954 8.6 7.3 13.8 10.0 1800.0 39.7 54954 6.2 5.4 9.4 6.9 1801.0 27.9 54954 4.6 3.9 6.8 4.3 1801.0 19.6 54964 5.0 6.3 7.1 7.0 901.0 25.4 54966 7.8 11.1 11.8 8.4 1800.0 39.1 54967 7.3 7.5 10.0 7.1 1200.0 31.9 --------------------------------------------------- Total when ALL b,r values > 2.0: 39.5 41.5 58.9 43.7 9303.0 --> 183.6 (limit=156.5) declared as DONE -------------------- Pointing Model ------------------- 07:02Z - mounted engCam, seeing < 1.3" 07:56Z - 9:25Z pointed model at 72 points 09:25Z - finished ------------------ * getdat [tcc.pterr]pterr_20090516.DAT;1 Read 72 data points * fix * use ie ia pzz1 an aw ca * fit coeff change value sigma 1 IE +14.140 -1.58 0.831 2 IA +7.312 -141.61 1.356 3 PZZ1 +1.850 -133.32 1.020 4 AN -5.106 +2.03 0.326 5 AW +7.348 -2.88 0.326 6 CA +2.507 +17.59 0.949 7 TX -6.45 8 HWCA2 +0.03 9 HWSA2 -0.78 10 HNCA1 +0.32 11 HNSA1 -0.54 12 ACEC +1.82 13 ACES -0.03 Sky RMS = 2.40 Popn SD = 2.51 * use * fit coeff change value sigma 1 IE -2.514 -4.09 1.200 2 IA -0.014 -141.63 1.303 3 PZZ1 -10.499 -143.82 3.927 4 AN -0.081 +1.95 0.407 5 AW -0.129 -3.01 0.400 6 CA +0.257 +17.85 0.967 7 TX +5.152 -1.30 1.876 8 HWCA2 -0.547 -0.52 0.526 9 HWSA2 +0.017 -0.76 0.541 10 HNCA1 +0.391 +0.71 0.608 11 HNSA1 -0.794 -1.33 0.605 12 ACEC -0.154 +1.67 0.731 13 ACES +0.410 +0.38 0.744 Sky RMS = 2.24 Popn SD = 2.47 * * outmod tdat:telmod * quit ----------------------- 09:50Z - Clouds come to us... 09:55Z - started short pointed model at 24 poit, but did not finish. 10:10Z - clouds, high dust and strong wind. We decided to close telescope. It was smell of fire on cite by the morning. It was clouds, but also rise of dust up to 5K. We immediatly closed the telescope. We called to SS, and to Fire Departemnt. Dust is up to 14K, wind ~30 mph. endNight is completed manually as auto mode is stopping because luck of imager information. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== 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): QA Procedures Done (y/n): UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 61144, plate -9999 ------- 00:09 61144 0.0 bias ----- sequence 61149, plate -9999 ------- 01:22 61149 0.0 bias ----- sequence 61149, plate 3404 ------- 06:34 61150 10.0 flat 06:37 61151 2.0 arc 07:01 61152 1200.0 target ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 06:45Z 2 3404 -70.61 -0.0064 77.90 0.0015 115.91 -0.0070 1.000050 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 06:45Z 2 3404 1.00005 -493 662 -50 -71 77.9 14.1 10 198 -- 1.2" ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 00:06Z 69 27 8 248 (WSW) 2583 - 01:48Z 60 25 4 98 (E) 2681 - 02:21Z 56 31 10 127 (SE) 2964 - 02:54Z 56 30 11 135 (SE) 2735 - 03:24Z 56 33 15 142 (SE) 3009 - 03:54Z 55 34 12 149 (SSE) 2742 - 04:27Z 54 33 2 129 (SE) 2681 - 04:58Z 55 32 3 192 (SSW) 2933 - 05:28Z 56 27 7 210 (SSW) 2904 - 06:00Z 58 27 7 224 (SW) 2834 - 06:31Z 57 28 10 211 (SSW) 2821 - 07:02Z 57 28 12 198 (SSW) 2679 - 07:34Z 56 28 12 201 (SSW) 2535 - 08:07Z 56 28 8 185 (S) 2593 - 08:38Z 55 29 10 179 (S) 2439 - 09:08Z 51 29 3 123 (ESE) 2395 - 09:39Z 53 28 2 125 (SE) 2351 - 10:11Z 48 29 24 68 (ENE) 5033 - 10:42Z 45 36 13 76 (ENE) 12586 - 11:16Z 43 39 23 69 (ENE) 13670 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 01:20Z - Began ventilation.
