APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday March 13, 2008 (MJD 54539) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Audrey Simmons Kaike Pan ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The first 3.5 hours was lost to clouds. We first one segue bright plate (2894), and three chunk plates: 2154, 2778, and 1818. Got signal one another chunk plate, 1670. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Systems are checked and verified fine. The spectro focus checked, no adjustment made, still set for about 5 C. Night: ------- 01:15Z encloure off. 01:40Z cart 9, plate 2961 (baotest). FK5 used for the field. As soon as we getting ready, clouds came in. 04:30Z in a socccer hole, decided to give the plate a shot. 04:35Z pre-calib. Clouds back again soon. 05:00Z clouds started to break up, and higher priority plates became available, we decided to change cartridge. 05:05Z cart 2, plt 2894 (segue). FK5 used. 05:50Z dust spiked at 3.2K. Then dropped to 2.5 K, to 1.5 K after 30 min. Combining signal got on mjd 54538, The plate was DONE. 07:45Z cart 4, plt 2154 (chunk). FK5 used. The plate was DONE with a total integration time of 3300 s. 09:15Z cart 6, plt 2778 (chunk). SOGTF. The plate was DONE with three 900 s exposures. 10:20Z cart 7, plt 1818 (chunk). SOGTF. The plate was DONE with a total integration time of 3000 s. 11:35Z cart 8, plt 1670 (chunk). FK5 used. Got one 900 s exposure. 12:35Z endNight rejoiced. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7367 22:57Z 23:16Z 100 O -134.57 -129.92 45 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 51002, plate -9999 ------- 23:02 51002 0.0 bias ----- sequence 51003, plate 2961 ------- 23:11 51003 10.0 flat 23:14 51004 2.0 arc 23:20 51005 3.0 arc 23:23 51006 3.0 arc 23:37 51007 0.0 bias 02:21 51008 10.0 flat 02:24 51009 2.0 arc 04:35 51010 10.0 flat 04:38 51011 2.0 arc ----- sequence 51012, plate 2894 ------- 2.1 6.3 13.8 3.6 05:22 51012 10.0 flat 05:25 51013 2.0 arc 05:53 51014 1501.0 target 06:26 51015 1802.0 target 07:00 51016 1802.0 target 07:03 51017 10.0 flat 07:06 51018 2.0 arc 07:39 51019 1801.0 target ----- sequence 51020, plate 2154 ------- 19.2 18.5 18.9 19.6 07:58 51020 10.0 flat 08:01 51021 2.0 arc 08:24 51022 1201.0 target 08:52 51023 1201.0 target 09:10 51024 903.0 target ----- sequence 51025, plate 2778 ------- 20.5 15.0 22.2 18.2 09:22 51025 10.0 flat 09:25 51026 2.0 arc 09:43 51027 901.0 target 10:01 51028 901.0 target 10:19 51029 900.0 target ----- sequence 51030, plate 1818 ------- 17.7 16.7 18.3 16.6 10:31 51030 10.0 flat 10:34 51031 2.0 arc 10:52 51032 901.0 target 11:10 51033 901.0 target 11:33 51034 1203.0 target ----- sequence 51035, plate 1670 ------- 5.5 4.3 3.9 4.0 11:52 51035 10.0 flat 11:54 51036 2.0 arc 12:12 51037 901.0 target ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 05:30Z 2 2894 134.95 0.0061 60.22 0.0062 -67.48 0.0237 1.000180 08:15Z 4 2154 89.77 0.0014 57.31 0.0058 250.60 0.0246 1.000060 09:29Z 6 2778 46.63 0.0012 69.41 0.0049 219.85 0.0261 1.000030 10:39Z 7 1818 7.61 -0.0020 64.06 0.0037 186.37 0.0149 1.000080 11:57Z 8 1670 226.83 0.0037 57.75 0.0025 72.09 0.0146 1.000160 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 05:30Z 2 2894 1.00018 -1778 -219 100 135 60.2 5.3 12 264 -- 1.5 08:15Z 4 2154 1.00006 -593 759 90 90 57.2 4.3 15 266 -- 1.6 09:29Z 6 2778 1.00003 -296 987 100 47 69.4 4.0 15 276 -- 1.6 10:40Z 7 1818 1.00008 -790 589 100 8 64.1 4.0 15 276 -- 1.4 11:58Z 8 1670 1.00016 -1580 -35 115 227 57.7 2.6 16 259 -- 1.5 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 22:22Z 45 10 14 273 (W) 916 - partly cloudy 22:53Z 46 12 9 256 (WSW) 967 - 23:23Z 48 13 11 267 (W) 960 - 23:54Z 47 13 18 280 (W) 977 - 00:24Z 44 13 12 266 (W) 1101 - 00:54Z 44 13 9 266 (W) 1236 - 01:25Z 44 13 14 229 (SW) 1344 - partly cloudy 01:56Z 42 13 13 236 (SW) 1321 - overcast 02:28Z 44 14 13 240 (WSW) 1402 - 03:00Z 44 16 19 253 (WSW) 1252 - 03:32Z 43 17 18 244 (WSW) 1270 - 04:05Z 42 17 22 248 (WSW) 1394 - 04:35Z 42 16 18 266 (W) 1806 - overcast 05:05Z 41 16 11 267 (W) 1929 - partly cloudy 05:37Z 41 15 20 280 (W) 2637 - 06:08Z 40 14 14 266 (W) 2460 - 06:39Z 41 14 16 266 (W) 1517 - 07:09Z 41 13 13 267 (W) 1311 - partly cloudy 07:40Z 40 15 16 265 (W) 1210 - clear 08:11Z 39 15 14 245 (WSW) 1181 - 08:42Z 39 15 18 267 (W) 1082 - 09:12Z 39 15 9 268 (W) 1205 - 09:42Z 38 15 18 246 (WSW) 1209 - 10:14Z 38 15 15 249 (WSW) 1178 - 10:44Z 36 16 14 258 (WSW) 1314 - 11:15Z 36 16 18 250 (WSW) 1276 - 11:46Z 37 16 20 251 (WSW) 1246 - 12:16Z 36 16 18 252 (WSW) 1315 - clear ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 00:05Z - Began ventilation.
