APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Saturday June 9, 2007 (MJD 54261) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dmitry Bizyaev Steph Snedden ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Most of the night was lost to rain and high humidity. The sky cleared and humidity dropped at the end of the night and we were able to get one exposure on one cartridge. No plates declared done. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ========= Afternoon checkout was without problems. Sp1 focus was changed slightly (see bottom of log), but should still be good for a night time temp of 10C. Night: ===== Rain, lightning, high humidity. We spent the cloudy time training Dmitry on various systems. 08:32Z - Humidity dropped and we started ventilation. 09:16Z - Opened for spectroscopy Cartridge 8, plate 2554 - SEGUE GSOGTF Our first precal was out of focus. We aborted the exposure in progress and reset the spectro focus, then took one good 15 minute exposure. By that time, we were at 15 degree twilight, so took a post-cal and went to close. endNight rejoiced. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6845 01:33Z 01:50Z 100 O -9.59 -5.23 40 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):n QA Procedures Done (y/n):n UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 45250, plate -9999 ------- 01:55 45250 0.0 bias 02:02 45251 0.0 bias ----- sequence 45252, plate 1791 ------- 02:28 45252 10.0 flat 02:30 45253 2.0 arc 02:34 45254 3.0 arc 02:37 45255 2.0 arc 03:13 45256 3.0 arc 03:15 45257 3.0 arc ----- sequence 45258, plate 2554 ------- 09:35 45258 10.0 flat out of focus 09:37 45259 2.0 arc out of focus 10:00 45260 3.0 arc hartmann 10:02 45261 3.0 arc hartmann 10:11 45262 10.0 flat 10:14 45263 2.0 arc 10:33 45264 901.0 target 10:36 45265 10.0 flat 10:38 45266 2.0 arc ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 09:49Z 8 2554 176.57 0.0001 62.66 0.0029 -5.88 -0.0158 1.000310 ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 09:49Z 8 2554 1.00031 -3061 -1238 150 177 62.7 10.8 10 140 -- 2.0 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 01:49Z 56 48 16 88 (E) 1019 - cloudy 02:19Z 55 48 13 128 (SE) 987 - ' 02:50Z 51 48 12 111 (ESE) 1333 - ' 03:20Z 51 47 9 90 (E) 1274 - ' 03:52Z 53 46 4 205 (SSW) 1115 - ' 04:24Z 48 47 19 35 (NE) 1591 - ' 04:56Z 49 46 13 28 (NNE) 1060 - ' 05:29Z 48 45 12 62 (ENE) 878 - ' 06:01Z 49 43 12 86 (E) 503 - ' 06:33Z 48 44 12 85 (E) 665 - ' 07:05Z 48 44 12 83 (E) 439 - ' 07:37Z 47 44 10 92 (E) 360 - ' 08:09Z 49 42 13 115 (ESE) 317 - ' 08:41Z 50 41 18 130 (SE) 313 - ' 09:12Z 51 43 17 156 (SSE) 621 - ' 09:42Z 51 42 5 168 (SSE) 489 - ' 10:14Z 50 43 8 177 (S) 428 - mostly clear 10:46Z 49 43 1 117 (ESE) 444 - ' 11:18Z 50 43 3 176 (S) 492 - ' ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 08:22Z - Started ventilation, opened doors. 09:16Z - Opened enclosure 10:58Z - Closed enclosure.
