APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Sunday October 1, 2006 (MJD 54010) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Swing: Elena Malanushenko Night: Mike Harvanek, Kaike Pan ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- We imaged: SuperNova strip 82 S from 123 to -123 (included ramps) seque strip 293 S from mu=23 to 42.3 (included ramps). 01:46Z we slew telescope to 82 S. This time stamp information is for French. Problem: DIMM could not be started. we got an error of invalid input value when we selected polaris in DIMM software. We tried again by restartin the DIMM GUI, and got the same error. Since it is optional we decide not to run DIMM tonight. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon Checkout: ------------------- 00:20Z. Cirrus, non-photometric, T=14.8C, humidity 28%, wind 11 mph, dust around 400 counts. All systems are checked and work fine. Spectro focus is good for 12C. Ventilation began around 00:05 Z. Night: ------- 00:50Z mounted imager, close doors. 01:01Z run 6424. on-telescope bias. 02:02Z run 6425, 82 S. started from lambda 112.5. In focud from the begining. Seeing was about 1.0". Skippy showed that pointing was good from the begining with a nu error of about 10". 02:04Z ramp started at frame 11, lambda 113. 02:12 science started at frame 23, lambda 115. seeing was good and stable. 10:10Z science ended at frame 825, lambda -125. 10:18Z ramp ended at frame 839, lambda -123. 10:20Z run 6426, segue strip 293 S started from mu 22 (not showed correctly in tccmon, but looked right in seeingrun). 10:24Z started goDrift at mu 22. Seeing was good at about 1.1". Focus and pointing were good from the begining (nu had a error about 8.5"). Sky was clear, photometric. 10:26Z ramp started at frame 12, mu=23. 10:34Z science started at frame 25, mu=25. 11:38Z science ended at frame 125, mu=40. Twilight began at 11:37Z. 11:43Z ramp ended at frame 140, mu=42.3. 12:15Z endNight finished. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6423 22:11Z 22:31Z 100 O 52.47 57.57 48 ignore 6424 01:02Z 01:23Z 100 O 95.26 100.50 49 bias 6425 02:01Z 10:18Z 82 S 112.57 -122.79 847 science 6426 10:23Z 11:43Z 293 S -162.62 -142.57 148 science ---=== IMAGING RUN DETAILS ===--- ---=== SKIPPY RESULTS ===--- Run Frame nFrames stars muErr muRms nuErr nuRms rot az el --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6425 21 4 7 15.800 2.335 -7.400 1.597 0.06049 176 57 6425 73 4 76 -1.100 0.107 -9.700 0.137 -0.00085 176 57 6425 124 4 95 -1.100 0.139 -9.300 0.110 -0.00063 176 57 6425 176 4 83 -1.300 0.167 -9.500 0.137 0.00073 176 57 6425 226 4 50 -1.200 0.116 -9.400 0.134 0.00203 176 57 6425 278 4 69 -1.200 0.140 -9.400 0.125 0.00196 176 57 6425 329 4 46 -1.500 0.126 -9.400 0.103 0.00132 176 57 6425 379 4 46 -1.300 0.187 -9.400 0.139 0.00165 176 57 6425 431 4 30 -1.100 0.149 -9.500 0.101 0.00234 176 57 6425 481 4 35 -1.300 0.132 -9.500 0.144 0.00154 176 57 6425 532 4 45 -1.200 0.130 -9.700 0.123 0.00124 176 57 6425 584 4 32 -1.200 0.114 -9.900 0.103 0.00176 176 57 6425 635 4 50 -1.100 0.141 -10.000 0.133 0.00022 176 57 6425 687 4 38 -0.900 0.136 -9.900 0.114 0.00041 176 57 6425 737 4 42 -1.100 0.157 -9.700 0.138 -0.00010 176 57 6425 789 4 43 -1.000 0.123 -9.800 0.115 0.00032 176 57 6426 17 4 42 -1.300 0.127 7.000 0.171 -0.00495 286 44 6426 86 4 130 -0.900 0.162 8.700 0.161 -0.01173 298 44 6426 136 4 0 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 -0.00000 0 0 ---=== LTMATCH RESULTS ===--- Run Field nFields alt az nGood rowMean rowSig colMean colSig rot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6425 532 1 57 4 19 -0.455 0.122 -0.738 0.142 0.00248 6425 532 1 57 4 18 -0.066 0.102 -0.830 0.150 0.00279 6425 532 1 57 4 4 0.483 0.083 -0.457 0.073 0.00154 6425 532 1 57 4 20 0.679 0.112 -0.332 0.129 0.00112 6425 532 1 57 4 18 0.889 0.125 -0.480 0.136 0.00161 ---=== 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 40819, plate -9999 ------- 22:20 40819 0.0 bias ----- sequence 40820, plate 2441 ------- 22:29 40820 10.0 flat 22:31 40821 2.0 arc 22:36 40822 2.1 arc 22:38 40823 2.1 arc ----- sequence 40824, plate -9999 ------- 00:44 40824 0.0 bias ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 07:23Z imager 4.41 0.0000 57.07 0.0000 93.55 0.0000 1.000000 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== DATA TAPE SUMMARY ===--- Goes: JL Stays: JL ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 07:23Z imager 1.00000 0 -440 -335 4 57.1 12.1 7 264 13 0.9 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 20:05Z 64 26 10 269 (W) 498 -
